Add a side of relief

Assist neighbors in need when dining out at participating Lemont restaurants during November by "Adding a side of relief".  100% of funds collected will be donated to the Lemont Township Family Assistance Fund and/or bring in a donation for the Lemont Food Pantries.  This program is available at 4 Lemont Restaurants for the month of November.  Stop in, have a bite to eat & ask for your “relief menu”at: 
"Front Street Cantina" 319 Front St, Lemont (website: www.frontstreetcantina.com)
"Nick's Tavern"  221 Main St, Lemont (website:  www.nickstavernlemont.net)
“Stonehouse Pub” 103 Stephen St., Lemont (website:  www.stonehousepub.org );
“3 Corners Grill & Tap” 12371 S. Derby Rd, Lemont (website:  www.3cornersgrill.com ); and
This is the second year for this assistance rallying program with a goal of rounding up relief and awareness of the Lemont food pantries and  Lemont Township Family Emergency Fund.
There are two food pantries in Lemont that supply assistance to over 100 households every month.
The Lemont Township Family Assistance Fund is managed by the Lemont Township Human Services Department and is called upon when a family/person in extreme financial strain experiences a crisis that prohibits them from the ability to meet their basic needs (utility bills, a month rent, food vouchers, vouchers for clothes from the thrift store, prescription costs, etc)  This fund provides help for those in our community when all other resources have been exhausted. 
The Family Emergency Assistance Fund is created solely by contributions. 
Donations are Tax Deductible.
