Thanksgiving Food Distribution in Springfield

Springfield-area Thanksgiving food giveaway for families in need at the Illinois State Fairgrounds

The Central Illinois Foodbank will host its Thanksgiving Food Distribution on Nov. 18, beginning at 12 p.m. at the Illinois State Fairgrounds in Springfield. The event is a drive-up food distribution for families in need.

Participants should enter the Illinois State Fairgrounds at Gate 6 (off of Taintor Road). Distribution volunteers will:

• Provide instructions
• Load food into the back seat or a trunk where space has been cleared prior to pickup

Families do not need to register or provide identification to participate. Please be aware that the start time may change and that food will be distributed while supplies last.
