We are very grateful to receive this food from Feed The Children; we feed 125 people everyday, and this truck load will allow us to not only help those here at Reconciliation, but allow us to reach out to the community.

These children have enough on their plates as it is. At Arlington Heights Academy they have trust with someone who has been helping them all along. You want to take that trust away for a dollar amount?

As the years pass, I am coming more and more to understand that it is the common, everyday blessings of our common everyday lives for which we should be particularly grateful. They are the things that fill our lives with comfort and our hearts with gladness -- just the pure air to breathe and the strength to breath it; just warmth and shelter and home folks; just plain food that gives us strength; the bright sunshine on a cold day; and a cool breeze when the day is warm.

Children and the elderly make over 50% of the people who receive food from food banks.

Their life is about getting enough money to put food on the table to feed their children, and that's it.

The financial industry is made up of real people with children, and they want this thing ended for society, too.
