Treat or Treat for our Lemont Food Pantries

Pick up a bag to fill to help fill the shelves of our local pantries which supply basic food assistance to more than 100 Lemont homes.

Tis the season for thinking of how to give and gather treats. A perfect opportunity to jump in and ask you to also think about our Lemont Food Pantries who struggle to keep the shelves stocked with items of substance that provide meals for more than 100 households in our community. These households would truly benefit and be lifted from your generosity.
