Assalamu Alaikum dear friends and neighbors,

Many families in our community are facing real hardship right now. No one should have to choose between paying a bill and putting food on the table. Whether you are here to give or to receive, you are part of our community — and you matter.

That is why The Mecca Center, in collaboration with our generous partners NCNW (West Suburban Chicago Section), Youth 4 Excellence, Hinsdale South High School, HSHS Community Action Team, Equity in Health, & Burr Ridge CCSD 180, is proudly hosting a food drive to support our neighbors during this difficult time.

Food pickup

This event is rooted in dignity, care, and hope — a reminder that supporting one another is a shared responsibility.
