2013 Have a Heart Food Drive

Week of February 9th - 16th

THE RESULTS ARE IN!  Downtown Crystal Lake collected over 1,800 pounds of food this year! 

Hunger is an issue every minute of every hour of every day.  In order to combat this issue, many of your favorite downtown merchants are hosting a "Have a Heart Food Drive" in order to stock the shelves of the Crystal Lake Food Pantry.

We encourage our customers to bring in non-perishable food items. Please click here for the Crystal Lake Food Pantry's list of most needed items.

The following is a list of participating businesses.  Many of them are offering special incentives to their customers who bring in items for the "Have a Heart Food Drive".
