Raising money for the hungry in our very own community

The F.I.S.H. Food Pantry provides food to families in need. The families served come from the communities of Carpentersville, East and West Dundee, Sleepy Hollow, and Gilberts, Illinois.

Our fundraising efforts directly impact the important mission of the FISH Food pantry, District 300 Food Pantry that are dedicated to families in this community.
