Stories of Impact

Candice Rhodes

Mom of a special needs teen

“My son is going through a lot right now with his speech and not being able to verbally communicate. Finding this job opportunity for my son is a blessing and I hope the program can receive enough funding to continue past the summer.”

Lauren Dover

Spark Employee

“My name is Lauren and I’m happy to have this job. Living with Down Syndrome I don’t have a lot of job opportunities. With this job, it’s fun and I learn a lot and I can give back to the community. I feel like I am doing a lot of good and it makes me smile.”

Gywnette Rhodes

83 yrs old

Food recipient

“It’s nice to receive the deliveries. Not only does it help me have enough to eat, but it feels good to know that the old folks are not forgotten about. It feels real good. I’m also shocked at the quality of the grocery boxes. My last box had spinach, kale, all colors of bell peppers, kiwis and apples.”

Tyson Miller

72 yrs old

Food recipient

“I never buy fruits and vegetables from the grocery store. I don’t know why but I don’t. I guess it’s because it goes bad so fast and I can’t afford to waste the money so it’s making a big difference getting fresh deliveries every week. I can eat better and stuff ya know?”

Danny Lopez

Monthly Donor

“I donate monthly because Spark Social helps two of the most vulnerable groups of people. They hire and train individuals with disabilities to deliver fresh groceries to seniors in need. It’s brilliant and I’m sure it takes a lot of hard work. I am committed to supporting them.”

Marianos Fresh Market

Corporate Partner

“Our company’s team volunteering days with Spark have been incredible for morale. Seeing the impact of our financial donations and time has made this a permanent part of our giving.”

How Your Donation Works

You Donate

Choose a donation amount that works for your budget. Every dollar counts and helps provide jobs for disabled persons and provides weekly deliveries of nutritious fruits & veggies to seniors in need.

We hire and train individuals with disabilities

We hire and train individuals with disabilities to coordinate with local gardens and other suppliers to gather fresh fruit, veggies, and other groceries to distribute to seniors. This helps support the local garden ecosystem.

Seniors Receive
Free Grocery Deliveries

3-4 days per week we deliver grocery boxes with a week worth of food to hundreds of seniors across Chicago. The deliveries are done by individuals with disabilities that we employ and train.

Make a Difference Today

We provide support for individuals with disabilities and senior citizens.

People with disabilities are often overlooked when it comes to meaningful work and community involvement. At the same time, many senior citizens face loneliness and a lack of personal connection.

Our program bridges that gap in a powerful way—by giving young adults with disabilities the chance to shine while bringing care and joy to seniors who need it most.
