In order for us to help out restaurants and those in need, the Satellite group started a fund to offer hot meals to those in need, by paying a restaurant to provide the meals. The Sisters of Charity convent, which is the home for elderly nuns in Wilmette, will be the first to receive such aid. They rely on food from local grocery stores that usually donate to them. Unfortunately, this aid was suspended. Our Satellite Club is currently having two meals for them provided by the Old Neighborhood Grill in Evanston. They are hoping to keep it going for once a week more, if funds allow it. They will also stock their shelves and shop for them, as they don’t leave the convent and most of them are older retired nuns.
Donations may be made to the Wilmette Rotary Foundation, indicating it is for “Sister of Charity Project”.
