Chicago Chefs Unite To Feed Immigrant Families Facing Food Insecurity
On Monday, January 19, Chicago’s culinary community will gather at the Ramova Theatre for Todos Ponen: Una Noche De Pueblos y Platillos, a citywide fundraising event designed to address the intensifying food insecurity facing Latino families due to recent ICE enforcement. More than 40 restaurants, 800 to 1,000 attendees, and partners from across neighborhoods and industries will unite to address food insecurity, wage loss, and the instability reshaping immigrant households across Chicago.
Rather than distributing food boxes, each family will receive an $800 grocery gift certificate to shop at neighborhood stores like La Chiquita, El Guero, and Jimenez Supermercado. This model allows families to choose the food that fits their needs while also strengthening local Latino-owned grocers. Local nonprofits will coordinate secure and discreet delivery of the grocery cards, ensuring families who are afraid to shop publicly can still access what they need. The event is projected to raise $100,000–$125,000, which will allow 125 Latino families to receive $800 each in direct grocery support.
For those looking to experience and support the event at Ramova Theatre on January 19, tickets can be purchased here. General tickets are priced at $125, and VIP Tickets are $175 and include early access.
