Corporate Partnerships
Your Map to Partnership
Food for Greater Elgin depends on compassionate, driven, big-hearted people (like you!) to lead change in our community. By partnering with us, you and your organization can have a direct impact on the lives of thousands of folks in the greater Elgin area.
When you partner with us, you’re doing so much more than feeding people: You’re building a better tomorrow for over 160,000 people in our community.
“Thank you for what you do. We were seriously hungry the last two weeks of every month but, thanks to you, that no longer happens! The pantry helps with our stomach issues, our mental acuity, and even our outlook on life. Food is fair for all!
May God bless every single one of you many times over. Someday, maybe we can volunteer with you.”
Become a Corporate Partner
Make Food for Greater Elgin part of your fiscal budget: We’ll take a one-time gift, or monthly, quarterly, or annual donations–whatever works best for your organization!
Donations can be given to our general operation, or designated to specific campaigns or needs.
Extra Incentives:
$10,000: Get a shout-out in our newsletter.
$15:000: Get your logo on our website.
$25,000: Get your name on our wall.
$50,000: Let’s talk!
Create a Match Program
Encourage everyone on staff to get into the spirit of giving by creating
a corporate match program.
Pledge to match any amount your employees raise on their own!
Volunteer
We depend on consistent, scheduled groups of corporate volunteers to stock our shelves and help our shoppers. Could your organization commit to a once or twice monthly time slot?
“I enjoy the people I volunteer with and the atmosphere at FFGE, especially when interacting with guests. Volunteering here allows us to impact our community, and I’m blessed to volunteer in such a positive environment.”
Sponsor an Event
Every year, Food for Greater Elgin holds several fundraising events, which are critical to achieving our donation goals. Would you consider sponsoring Chip in for Hunger, Pallet to Palate, and Change for Hunger?
In-Kind Gifts
Does your company have something unique to give? From ad space to venues, Thanksgiving turkeys to prizes for drawings and incentives to give, we’d be honored to take any in-kind gifts you have to offer.
Host a Food Drive
While cash donations give us an incredible amount of buying power–for every $100 we receive we can buy $800 worth of groceries–we understand the tangible value of hosting a food drive, and welcome any non-perishable goods and care products.
