Having trouble finding that perfect gift?
Gift a donation to the Southern Illinois Collaborative Kitchen!
Our purpose is to address food insecurity in our area by providing free and low-cost meals that are prepared by local restaurants and Cristaudo’s, while utilizing local ingredients if and when possible. We also offer meals to the public utilizing a pay-what-you can donation model, combined with outside donations from community members to help continue to fund this effort. This in-turn helps support struggling local restaurants as well.
With support from Carbondale Spring-Food Autonomy Gardens, area businesses, individuals and community partnerships we are also working to establish a network of local organizations, restaurants, gardens and farms to feed community members.
There are many ways to help support our organization:
You can donate directly to sponsor meals and support local restaurants that provide them!
A whole lot of gifts all tied up in one!
Visit our Go Fund Me, Venmo, or donate to our fund through the Southern Illinois Community Foundation:
We also have t-shirts for sale. Proceeds from the sale of these shirts go straight to the Southern Illinois Collaborative Kitchen. Get your loved one a gift that helps others too!
