The fine folks over at the Oak Park and River Forest food pantry, located in the basement of First United Church, 848 Lake, are in need of air conditioners. We’d like to help them out. The AC units will help keep the food they provide on the shelves longer and eventually into the hands of those in need this summer.

Here’s how you can help:

Unity Temple has fronted the money for the AC units. Folks who wish to donate to the cause can send a check directly to them:

Unity Temple UUC

Oak Park, IL 60301
Attn. David Wilke
make a note in the memo field that says “Walk In Ministry AC units”
