Illinois Tornado Response
Bring Comfort to Tornado Victims
A powerful tornado stuck northern Illinois and northwestern Indiana, damaging homes, toppling trees, and downing power lines. As Mercy Chefs serves Kankakee, IL, and surrounding communities, every gift helps provide chef-prepared meals to families who have lost so much and first responders and volunteers working around the clock in the aftermath of the tornado. Help us bring comfort to those facing difficult days ahead.

Each meal costs $3.50, offering hope and a sense of normalcy to families recovering from the storm. A gift of $70 provides 20 meals, $175 provides 50 meals, and $350 provides 100 meals.
Donations will support the purpose above or the area of greatest need. Mercy Chefs is a 501(c)(3) organization, and your donation is tax-deductible as allowed by law.
