September is Hunger Action Month. It is a nationwide effort to raise awareness of the millions of Americans who don't have enough to eat and for all of us to take action to fix it.
According to Feeding America, more than 1.2 million people in Illinois are facing hunger. More than 300,000 of those are children.
The Northern Illinois Food Bank serves the suburbs of Chicago and goes out into the rural areas of Northern Illinois, working with 900 food pantries.
