Over 150 buildings participated in the 2018 GCFD Holiday Food Drive. Our goal was to collect 120K pounds to feed the food insecure of Chicagoland. Our members surpassed that goal by collecting 172,712 pounds of food. We collected 58,268 in physical food donations and $31,790 in monetary donations ($1=3.6 pounds). Thank you for all of your fundraising efforts this past holiday season! To view photos from the 2018 drive, please click here.
