In "1987" our Late First Lady Mrs. Ola M. Davis wanted to do a little something to

"feed a few folk."

Her dream was to provide food free of charge to the South Side of Chicago.  She used her vision to open a food pantry in the church.  When she started she would work weekly driving around with her husband, our pastor picking up donation until she had gathered enough to distribute to the neighborhood.  She had two friends with whom she worked at the time at the "Illinois Tool Works Company," and, with their donations, and help she would support the pantry.

When she had gathered and purchased enough food she would post a handmade sign outside the church stating, "Free Food Tomorrow."  This she would do once every three months until the demand grew and grew.

The church joined with the Greater Chicago Food Depository and began to distribute free food weekly to those in need. That demand has grown to a weekly food pantry which now serves over one thousand per month.

The pantry is always in need of food items and financial support to serve those that need assistance from the pantry.

There is a new way that you can help

feed hundreds more people;

Any donation made to the pantry during the months of March and April will be matched by the

"Alan Shawn Feinstein Foundation."

Make your donations to the pantry to be a part of the

"Feinstein Challenge:

Mr. Feinstein is committed to fighting hunger in the United States and you can be a part of this million dollar effort by contributing to the

Ola M. Davis Memorial Food Pantry.

Your donations are always welcome.
