Salt Creek Golf Club in Wood Dale, IL hosted a food drive which kicked off with a golf tournament on October 29 and continued until November 17. Members of the local community were encouraged to attend the tournament on October 29, and to bring donations to the golf club throughout the remainder of the food drive.
The result? Nearly 350 pounds of food - that's 290 meals - were collected for their neighbors in need.
Nelson Westerberg of Elk Grove Village, an Atlas agent, generously offered to deliver the donations to the Bensenville Food Pantry at the conclusion of the event.
Over 1.6 million people in Illinois, including 1 in 5 children, face hunger. Thanks to organizations like the Salt Creek Golf Club and Nelson Westerberg of Elk Grove Village, Move For Hunger can continue to help the over 50 million Americans who do not have enough to eat.
