HistoryLakeview Pantry opened its doors in 1970 with the mission of providing food to those living below the poverty level. Today we not only distribute groceries, but also help clients address the issues that often lead to food insecurity, such as unemployment and housing instability. Lakeview Pantry is one of the longest-lived food pantries in Chicago. It began operation in 1969 through the efforts of a few dedicated neighbors who wanted to help people in their community who were struggling to secure the food they needed.SpecialtiesOur mission is to eliminate hunger in our community by: providing food to fill the basic need of hungry people, increasing the independence of our clients through self-help initiatives and other innovative programs, and raising awareness of hunger and poverty and work towards solutions to eliminate them. Our vision is to be a stable presence in the communities we serve, and to be a model of compassionate, effective, and collaborative service delivery. Our ultimate goal is the eradication of hunger and poverty in our communities. We provide on-site food distribution, a home delivery service for the homebound, distribute free clothing and have a case management program in order to help clients connect with other services they may need to address the causes of food insecurity.
