Meals for Weiss Memorial Hospital ER and Clinical Support Staff

Chicago, IL

Story

Our local ER and Clinical Support Staff are working tirelessly to keep us all safe while we are staying home to keep them safe. Let's give back and help fuel them with meals at this critical time. This is also a chance to support our local restaurants and delivery drivers. STAY HOME AND HEALTHY, and ORDER MEALS to be DELIVERED to WEISS! Please use the CALENDAR below to CLAIM the day you (or your group) would like to provide a lunch or dinner to Weiss front line staff. Once claimed, please indicate HOW MANY meals you are able to provide and the name of the restaurant you would like to arrange to have the food delivered from. (THE CALENDAR BELOW IS JUST A WAY TO RESERVE THE DAY YOU WOULD LIKE TO CLAIM). While we suggest you (OR YOU AND A GROUP) purchase 25 meals—ANY amount of meals will help! You pick any local restaurant of your choice to place your order and use their delivery service, Grub Hub, Uber Eats, Door Dash, or any other delivery service.

Please note when calling to place your order please mention that you are donating your meal as we have found many restaurants are providing some type of discount for your good deed! ER folks are not picky, and anything is welcome. Also, please keep your receipts and check with your accountants/tax preparers to find out if you can utilize this as a tax deductible donation. - We are doing our part by staying home, but this is one small thing we can do as a community to mobilize behind those that must go to work to help our communities!
