A donation box

This November, we’re partnering with The Chicago Help Initiative to collect gently used shoes and warm clothing for Chicagoans in need. A donation box is conveniently located in the elevator lobby—just drop off coats, sweaters, shoes, hats, or gloves as you come and go. All donations will directly support those facing the cold without basic essentials. The drive runs through the end of November.

Let’s come together as a community and make a meaningful impact. Questions? Email Rachel RCovey@ffc.com.

Join us for our D.A.S.H. Friendsgiving Potluck on Saturday, November 15 at 12:00 PM in the Local ’84 Café. We’ll be providing the ham and turkey, and we invite you to bring your favorite side dish to share. Enjoy live music, connect with fellow D.A.S.H. members, and take part in a warm and welcoming celebration of community. All members are welcome to bring one non-member guest.

Please RSVP to Rachel at RCovey@ffc.com so we can plan accordingly. We look forward to celebrating the season together!

Holiday table set with meals

This season, we’re inviting all members to contribute to our Holiday Recipe Sharing Wall — a cozy space for festive flavors and personal traditions, located on the slatwall just before the staircase. To participate, simply send your favorite holiday recipe to Rachel at RCovey@ffc.com, and she’ll post it to the wall for everyone to enjoy. Recipes can include the dish name, ingredients, instructions, and, if you’d like, a personal note or memory that makes it meaningful to you.

This ongoing activity throughout November is a chance to celebrate the season, share traditions, and strengthen our community — one recipe at a time.
