Food Aid

One in seven in Cook County experience food insecurity. Your donation can prevent that.

We may not realize it, but hunger is a serious problem in the Greater Chicago area. According to one study from Feeding America, approximately one in seven people in Cook County will experience food insecurity this year. As a means to battle food insecurity in our area, Zakat Chicago supports seven Muslim owned and operated food pantries across Chicgaoland. Your donation will help provide tens of thousands of meals every year at these pantries.

In addition to the financial support we provide across various Chicago food pantries, we created food boxes to take care of our Muslim community during the Holy Month of Ramadan this past year. These boxes were filled to the brim with the halal food products that a family would need to prepare a nutritious Ramadan iftar and meals. Join us in our mission to feed as many community members as possible by donating today.
