Filling the FamilyForward pantry to support families

We are very grateful to all who help to keep our pantry of household supplies full and ready to support the families in our program.

Did you know that FamilyForward maintains a pantry of household supplies and personal-care items that are distributed to our program families every month? Families have access to paper products, cleaning supplies, laundry soap, personal-hygiene products, and school supplies when needed, especially when their financial resources are already stretched so thin.

We appreciate the giving spirit of our church partners in keeping the pantry stocked so that families continue to consistently receive household essentials. Every month, the Presbyterian Women Circle 3 at First Presbyterian Church of Arlington Heights contributes items to our pantry as part of their ministry to the community. Recently, the Women of St. James, from St. James Catholic Church in Arlington Heights, conducted a month-long collection that filled the pantry shelves and our hearts.

Care and compassion for our shared community comes in many shapes and sizes, and we are grateful for everyone who keeps our pantry stocked so families have one less thing to worry about!
