Good Neighbors Field Outreach volunteers at the Chicago Lights Social Service Center in Chicago.

Good Neighbors Field Outreach is a local community group dedicated to supporting the Chicago Lights Social Service Center by welcoming participants with dignity and respect. Founded by a former guest of the center, the group aims to put words into action by assisting adults during times of need. Volunteers are invited to assist with the Food Pantry and the clothing Share Shop. Specifically, the group organizes bi-monthly Food Pantry deliveries from the Greater Chicago Food Depository, which take place on the second and fourth Mondays of each month from 8:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Participation requires the ability to lift 40-pound boxes. Through these efforts, the group helps create a supportive environment where community members can feel wonderful and connected. Hilda, a volunteer with Chicago Lights Social Service Center, emphasizes that the community is amazing and that helping guests in these essential areas fosters a sense of belonging and respect for all participants.
