Loaves & Fishes Community Services Introduces New Online Grocery Market

-

Loaves & Fishes Community Services recently announced a new way for clients to receive healthy food. Clients now can pre-select their groceries through Loaves & Fishes’ Online Market and then simply pick up their order from Loaves & Fishes’ new Food Distribution Hub.

Clients can access the Online Market through Loaves & Fishes’ website or by visiting lffood.org. There, they can then select fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy, proteins, beverages, bread, frozen foods, personal care products, household products, and infant care for no charge. Because some clients work multiple jobs, or have family or physical constraints, in-person shopping can be challenging. The Online Market gives them the ability to shop anytime, anywhere.

The Online Market is easy and simple to use, as most clients can complete an order in 5-10 minutes.

Access the Online Market through Loaves & Fishes’ website or via www.lffood.org.

Choose from three ways to access food

Loaves & Fishes is focused on significantly impacting families’ lives by increasing access to food by families that are food insecure. Loaves & Fishes clients now can choose how they get the food they need through three ways: shopping in-person at Loaves & Fishes’ Naperville Market, ordering online and then picking up their order, or receiving prepacked boxes of food through curbside service at the Food Distribution Hub.

‘Online Market’ software available to assist needs nationwide

“Very importantly, Loaves & Fishes intentionally designed the Online Market software so that any food pantry in the United States could easily use the software for their own clients. While this approach added complication and time to develop the software, Loaves & Fishes believes that collaborating with others has the most impact on meeting the needs of food insecure families,” noted Mike Havala, President and CEO of Loaves & Fishes.

This project was made possible through the support of the local community and from a grant from the Thierer Foundation.

Loaves & Fishes Community Services is a registered 501(c)(3) organization that has served our community since 1984, and is one of the largest food pantries in the state of Illinois. Our mission is to provide healthy food and impactful programs to promote self-sufficiency.
