Between 1999 and 2010, the number of people living in extreme poverty in Champaign County has increased nearly 60%.*

We know the face of desperation, because we see it every day on the faces of those in need. But thanks to your generosity, we also see the light of hope — in a full bag of groceries, in a nice shirt for the first day of class or a smile that stretches from ear to ear. If you'd like to join us in that mission of hope, please consider your gift today.

Because every dollar you donate buys $10 of food through the Eastern Illinois Food Bank, financial gifts provide the best way to feed the largest number of families in need.

Donate online:

For every $100 donated Salt & Light can feed 26 individuals for 1 week.

To make a recurring donation, enter the amount you wish to donate and click Donate Monthly button.

If you're intereseted in donating on a regular monthly basis via automatic debit (ACH) from your checking account, we can also help you set that up. Just call us at 217-355-5654. Thank you for your generosity!

In addition to financial support, you can also donate clothing and other items for local families in need.
