This November, join us in giving thanks and making a difference in our community with our annual Donation Drive. Drop off hygiene products at the club, and we’ll donate them to Nourishing Hope, a Chicago-native food pantry. Accepted donations include Shampoo, Conditioner, Bar Soap/Body Wash, Toothbrushes, Toothpaste, Pocket Tissues, and Toilet Paper (individually wrapped). Together, we can make this holiday season a little brighter for everyone.
