Feed the Hungry with a Future Gift

Your Legacy Plan Can Help End Hunger

Donors like you ensure that members of our community have the nourishment they need now and into the future.  In fact, thanks to the generosity of our benefactors, the Greater Chicago Food Depository has distributed food to more than 800,000 neighbors across Cook County.

The Best Way You Can Give to End Hunger? You Choose

There are several ways you can give to end hunger. Whether your estate plan includes gifts of cash, securities, gifts through wills, a charitable remainder trust, charitable gift annuities, real estate or other assets, we can help you find the option that works best for you and your legacy plan.

Selecting the Food Depository as beneficiary in your plans like a will or an estate will help provide nutritious food to help Chicago and Cook County be a more food secure community for years to come.

If you have arranged or are interested in preparing for a future gift (a charitable bequest) to the Food Depository by designating the Food Depository as the charitable beneficiary of a retirement plan, IRA, appreciated securities, donor advised fund (DAF), trust or estate, please let us know. We would be grateful for the opportunity to thank you and to recognize your generosity through our legacy society, the Will to End Hunger.
