The club is once again hosting the pancake breakfast as part of the Backlot Bash in downtown Skokie. The breakfast is August 30 from 8:00am -11:00am. We will need 40 people to volunteer and work this event. The pancake breakfast is only as successful as the volunteers who staff it. We need all the help we can get, whether it be flipping pancakes, busing tables, greeting patrons, etc.
Please open the volunteer sheet link below to sign up. In addition, please consider inviting any spouses, children, etc. that may be willing to volunteer their time as well.
From 10:30 a.m. - Noon, we will be preparing diaper donations for families in need at Bundled Blessings, located in the First United Methodist Church, 516 Church St., Evanston. This is a fun and easy volunteer activity that makes a huge impact. Please sign up HERE!
Sunday, August 30

Food Pantry Pickups at Trader Joe's:
Ongoing: a reminder about our ongoing Trader Joe’s Food Rescue effort. Our club participates year-round in picking up donated food from Trader Joe’s in Evanston and delivering it to the Niles Township Food Pantry. This is a great way to help stock the food pantry while making sure that good food doesn't go to waste. Specific pick-up times are available via online sign up form HERE.
Thanks everyone!Please let me know if you have questions or any ideas for future service projects.
