The Friendship Center (TFC) supports the food-insecure populations of Chicago’s northwest side neighborhoods like Albany Park, Lincoln Square, North Park, Ravenswood, and West Ridge. We are a welcoming, fresh food, full-choice pantry providing hot meals, home delivery, and pet food distributions. Our food-rescue program is one of the largest in the city of Chicago. We serve over 4,500 neighbors facing hunger each month.

However, it requires more volunteers than we currently have - we would love to have you join! Shifts are usually 2-3 hours and opportunities are every day except Sunday. Feel free to visit our website and sign up to view the specific tasks and when they are needed to be filled.

Thanks for your consideration!
