What we offer
Four ways we show up for Marquette Park, every single month.
Job leads
We keep a running list of local employers who are hiring, and help neighbors take the next step toward work.
Clothing
Gently used clothing for adults and children, sorted and ready to take home at every giveaway.
Housing leads
Connections to local housing resources and shelters, shared one-on-one with neighbors who need a door to knock on.
Why we serve
No neighbor in Marquette Park should go hungry
Missionaries for Christ Community Outreach is a faith-based volunteer ministry on Chicago's South Side. We believe hunger prevention is more than a bag of groceries — it's a hand up. Alongside every food giveaway, we share job leads, clothing, and leads on housing, because a neighbor who is fed, dressed, and working can stand on their own again.
Join us
Every bag of groceries tells a neighbor they're not alone
Whether you can give a few dollars, sort a few boxes, or simply show up on giveaway morning, you make this ministry possible.
