The 2010 Chicago Horror Film Festival will be donating $1 for every 3 Day Pass that is purchased through July and August to chicagolandhalloween’s Haunts Against Hunger.

In Addition to the donation, we will also be setting up a collection box at the entrance to the film festival for anyone wishing to donate food goods for the charity. Anyone who donates will get $2 off entry into the festival off the At Door prices. Yes, it is still cheaper to get your tickets online, but you can bring and Donate food as it is going to a good cause.

“Hunger remains a serious issue for many residents of Illinois, as almost a half-million people each year rely on food provided by the Greater Chicago Food Depository’s network of pantries, soup kitchens and shelters. Working poor families, parents of young children and the elderly are among those who need our assistance to not go hungry.

In 2009, Chicagolandhalloween.com is heading up the 2nd Annual “Haunts Against Hunger” Food Drive with the Greater Chicago Food Depository. If it is in your means, we will be taking donations of non-perishable food that will be donated from October 17th to October 31st just in time to help families for the Thanksgiving & Christmas season!

Our headquarter drop site is at the Worth Halloween House in Worth. To find our network of collections sites go to chicagolandhalloween.com

If your decorated home or business is the Halloween hit of your area and you would like to help provide food for hungry people in the Chicago metropolitan area, we would love to have your home become part of the CLH “Haunts Against Hunger” team and become a “Collection Haunt” (drop off point). To become a “Collection Haunt” go to chicagolandhalloween.com!

This year we hope not only to entertain fellow Halloween lovers but to try and help our community as well. You can too!

We need items high in protein canned meats, beef stew, chili and peanut butter. Also needed are canned vegetables and fruits, rice, pasta and cereal. With your help, we can restock the shelves with food for hungry people. Thank you for joining us in the fight against hunger!
