Food Insecurity In Northern Illinois
Jenny Ackerman is a Development Officer for Corporate and Foundation giving at Northern Illinois Food Bank. She joined the Food Bank team in October 2020 and has spent her career in non-profit fundraising. She attended Elmhurst College (now Elmhurst University) and has lived in the Chicagoland area for most of her life.
Ms. Ackerman will focus her presentation on the common causes of food insecurity, what factors commonly contribute to it, what demographic groups are most severely impacted and how the NIFB addresses food insecurity. She will also share how the Food Bank operates and explain the various programs and features they use to distribute food in their geographic area, including how they work with smaller area food banks, suppliers, farmers, volunteers, and others.
Our branch will have a food drive in conjunction with this month’s speaker.
