Supporting PADS of Elgin through a Supply Drive

in Events April 12, 2024 0 comments

At Seigle’s, we love and appreciate the communities in the Chicagoland area. Our team cares about building healthy communities and supporting organizations that do their part to improve people’s lives. That’s why we have a focus on giving back—and when we can do this as a team, it brings us together. We recently ran a donation drive as our first quarter team project to gather essential supplies for PADS of Elgin. We filled and delivered an entire truck of supplies!

PADS of Elgin offers shelter, meals, and support services to individuals experiencing homelessness. Their goal is to help guests transition to more stable living situations. Last year they hosted 109 guests for a total of 10,933 nights of shelter. 59 percent of their guests were successfully housed.

Supply drives are important to keep the PADS shelter stocked, and allow them to allocate resources toward essential programs and services for their guests. They have a specific list of items that they are able to accept and put to use. If you know of any organization that might be interested in doing a donation drive, reach out to Angie DeLeon at adeleon@padsofelgin.org for more details.
