Thank You Elmhurst!

United Community Concerns Association (UCCA) would like to thank the Elmhurst community for its overwhelming support of Taste of the Town: Dining for a Cause, held throughout the month of May at 17 Elmhurst restaurants and businesses.

With community support and the generosity of participating businesses, we were able to exceed our goal, raising almost $7,000. These funds will be used to provide Mobile Food Pantries through the summer and fall months to Elmhurst District 205 children and their families experiencing difficult times.

UCCA is an all-volunteer, not-for-profit organization that has provided food to local residents facing food scarcity for 42 years. 98% of all funds that UCCA collects are used to help those in need. So far this year, UCCA has provided over $138,000 in food and food certificates to more than 300 families and 84 senior residents. This would not be possible without our dedicated volunteers, our generous partners, and our caring community. Since the needs are as strong as ever, your financial support is appreciated year-round as we continue to work together to fight hunger in our Elmhurst community. Checks may be made payable to UCCA, 125 W. Church Street, Elmhurst, IL 60126. For more information, please visit www.ucca-elmhurst.org.
