Feed Our Frontlines
Chicago healthcare workers are gearing up for the fight of their lives -- fighting for ours. But they’re battling more than just the disease. Exhaustion and depression are real threats to their health, safety, and stamina.
We can help by observing social distancing, but want to do more. The goal is to deliver premium quality meals from Chicago restaurants to hospitals all over the city, not once, but for as long as it takes to win the war against COVID-19.
In the next days, these people may be taking care of someone you love. Help take care of them. $10 buys a real meal for someone on a long and brutal shift -- and tells them you have their back.

WHO WE ARE
We’re Chicagoans who want to help. We bet you do too. We’ve all seen how hard both hospitals and small businesses are being hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. Feed Our Frontlines is our effort to take care of our city’s healthcare workers while supporting local businesses.
The target financial goal is only a placeholder -- we'll keep this going as long as we can. 100% of the money raised will go to paying the restaurants and their staff to prepare, box, and deliver the food. We will post pictures of every delivery so you can see your generosity at work.
The effort is organized by Marcus and GG Sakey and the team at Ritual Beverage . We include the Facebook links so you can see we’re real people, but this isn’t about us. This is about all of us, and what we can do besides sit on our couches.
Are you a healthcare worker at a hospital in Chicago? Want us to send your team a hot gourmet meal? Email [email redacted] and we'll get on it.
(Note: 100% of donations will go to healthcare workers and local restaurants. All time and expenses to manage this program are being donated. In the unlikely event of excess funds, they will be split between established charities for healthcare workers and restaurant staff.)
