Chiditarod

Chiditarod The annual Chicago-based charitable phenomenon. Food drive, pub-crawl, public art, fundraising, glory

At the end of the day we are a charitable event which gives back to needy Chicago communities. We lay claim to being “Probably the World's Largest Mobile Food Drive”. Our philanthropic efforts help address urban food and hunger challenges by partnering with organizations that provide immediate hunger relief (food pantries, etc), and sustainable food empowerment through urban farming and education. More than $100,000 and 100,000 pounds of food raised to feed Chicago's hungry.

We'd like to thank the The Not That Late Show team for their on the ground reporting at the 21st Chiditarod.
