Through Bigger Table’s partnership with Feeding America and its member the Central Illinois Food Bank, 40,000 bars were recently provided to help meet food insecurity needs in Illinois’ capital region. The next round of bars is slated for Chicago-area food banks and pantries.

Thank you to ADM for its leadership on this effort, and thanks to Blommer Chocolate, Coyle Print Group, Glanbia Nutritionals, Imbibe, Olam Cocoa, and Olam Edible Nuts for their donations and work on this project.
