July 23, 2026 Good Food Gathering Fundraiser
Make it A Night to Remember
Join us for this year’s Good Food Gathering Fundraiser! This event is an opportunity to invest in a stronger, healthier, and more equitable food future for Chicago. Building on the success of last year’s event, this annual fundraiser brings together philanthropists, community leaders, food entrepreneurs, and advocates committed to expanding access to nutritious food and creating economic opportunities in our communities.
Throughout the evening, guests will experience the impact of investing in Good Food programs through success stories, food demonstrations, local food tastings, and connect with the entrepreneurs and community partners who are transforming Chicago’s food ecosystem. Every ticket purchased, sponsorship secured, and contribution made helps advance programs that support nutrition education, food access, and the growth of local food businesses.
By joining us at the Good Food Gathering, you are doing more than just attending an event; you are helping fuel lasting change. Together, we can continue building a future where every neighborhood has access to healthy food, thriving local food businesses, and the necessary resources to ensure Good Food is on every table.
