DONATE ITEMS
We take donations of Food and supplies to directly support the Food Pantry. We also take most gently used items- from clothing of all ranges, small household items, toys, children’s items, books, small furniture pieces, small electrics, etc. Items may be used to fulfill direct requests or given out to families we serve through our pantry.
SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Set up recurring donations to 4 Kids Sake once a month. Even a $10 monthly donation goes a long way with continued support.

Advertising Opportunities
Want to have your business advertised in supporting philanthropic efforts? We are happy to work with you to place a banner in our shop where we have nearly 1,000 transactions every month and thousands of people to see your support. You provide a banner displaying your logo with "your business" supports 4 K.I.D.S. Sake. Based on the size of the banner & length of time you want it advertised we have a flat price to market your business that will directly support funding families who need us most. Want to take it one step further? Would your business be willing to offer a donation for every new customer we send your way? We are always happy to advocate and support your business and success as well.

One-time Sponsorships
PLATINUM $5,000: For the cost of this sponsorship, you will support covering the cost of the space for the Food Pantry for an entire month. This helps us to ensure we have a stable home in our community to be committed and constant in serving our neighbors.
GOLD $2,500: For the cost of this sponsorship, you will support covering the cost of the utility overhead we experience within the pantry space. With 10 refrigerator and freezer units, heat and air especially in peak seasonal months and the cost of trash removal.
SILVER $1,000: For the cost of this sponsorship, you will support covering the expenses of the costs of Food Recovery. It takes 6 days a week of picking up food donations from local grocery stores to ensure we have enough food to feed the families that depend on our services. The importance of this is not only for quantity but also quality. Through the frequency of picking up food donations, we can offer quality and fresh grocery items to families such as dairy, bakery items, and produce on a consistent basis.
BRONZE $500: For the cost of this sponsorship, you will support covering the expenses of the costs of staple food items for families. According to data from Feeding America, the average cost of a meal is $3 in Illinois. That’s over 150 full meals provided to families with this donation.
COPPER $250: For the cost of this sponsorship, you will support covering the expenses of the supplies needed for operations for an entire month. This includes grocery bags for about 500 families monthly, cleaning and sanitation supplies which ensure we provide the absolute best in our commitment to health and safety protocols, and all that falls in between.
OTHER: Each and every donation made, no matter the amount, is abundantly appreciated and helps us support the recurring costs of the food pantry as we continue to expand and serve. Even every $1 donated can provide up to $8 worth of groceries.
