Brian & Kenzie present the Fourth Annual
‘God Bless the Gravy’ Food Drive
Help take hunger off the table by donating to the Greater Chicago Food Depository with The Brian & Kenzie Showhere.
In collaboration with the Greater Chicago Food Depository, Cook County’s local food bank, Brian & Kenzie are proud to announce their annual ‘God Bless the Gravy’ Food Drive!
We are thrilled at the chance to give back to those that need it most this year thanks to the wide array of services provided by the Greater Chicago Food Depository.
Your help has never been needed more! Just $1 can help provide three meals, thanks to the incredible work provided by GCFD, which acts as a hub for over 700 different food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters, and other forms of aid in the Chicagoland area.
Brian & Kenzie are looking to raise $10,000 to appropriately aid Chicagoland in the fight against hunger this holiday season.
11/2/24 – Carrera De Los Muertos / Race of the Dead
What is Carrera de los Muertos?
Carrera de los Muertos® / Race of the Dead is a 5K fundraising race event that originated in Pilsen, Chicago. The first race took place in 2007, and it has since grown to become one of the premier 5Ks in the U.S.. Owned and operated by United Neighborhood Organization (UNO), a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Carrera de los Muertos raises money for UNO programming, such as the GirlsMPowered program.
This autumn race takes place annually in Chicago’s historic Pilsen neighborhood. Runners and walkers come together, both in person and virtually, to celebrate Día de los Muertos / Day of the Dead. Complete with costumes, entertainment, and food, it is a truly special event.
Chicago’s Concert for a Cause, WeishFest, is back at The Salt Shed on Saturday November 9th. Featuring a unique lineup of music and an atmosphere unlike any other, with crowd favorites, O.A.R., GRAMMY-nominated superstar MIKE POSNER, Indie-folk sensation WILDERADO and folk-pop up and comer, HANS WILLIAMS. All WeishFest proceeds benefit Weish4Ever’s mission of uplifting families battling cancer, helping bring support to more than 600 families facing cancer with financial gifts totaling over $3 million.
