An organization dedicated to bridging communities together to help serve one another 🤍

Chancez NFP is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to uplifting our community through compassion, connection, and service. We support individuals and families who are often overlooked and underheard — working to remove barriers rooted in poverty, mental health challenges, and lack of access to opportunity. Through Chancez, we meet people where they are — on the streets, in shelters, and at community events — offering food, clothing, housing referrals, and most importantly, hope. Our focus goes beyond immediate relief; we empower residents to reclaim their voices, restore dignity, and shape their own paths forward. By bringing together volunteers, local organizations, and neighbors, Chancez is building a stronger, kinder Elgin — one act of love at a time.

Oookaaay… ❤️ This day was truly something special.

Our Love Thy Neighbor Community Cookout was filled with so much laughter, love, fellowship, good food, and beautiful moments. Over 100 people came through, and seeing everyone enjoying themselves, eating, laughing, and just being together made every bit of the work worth it.🤍

We truly cannot thank everyone who poured into this day enough. Because of your generosity and willingness to serve, our friends were able to enjoy themselves in abundance💛

This video captures just a little piece of what God allowed us to experience. And honestly… my heart is full. A special shout out to Rodrigo Villagomez for capturing these moments so beautifully.

This is why we do what we do. This is Chancez. This is LOVE THY NEIGHBOR in action. ❤️

P.S. Did you peep the young man serving and even cutting hair? 👀❤️ That’s what it’s all about—watching the next generation learn what it means to serve, give back, and love their neighbor. Those are the moments that make my our hearts full!🥹💛

God is GOOD!!🤍

We are so incredibly grateful for every sponsor, donor, volunteer, and person who has poured into tomorrow’s Love Thy Neighbor Community Cookout. Look at ALL this food! God has truly provided abundantly.

We are excited for tomorrow and ready to share a day filled with good food, fellowship, laughter, and love.

Come on by — there’s plenty of food to share!

What started as a vision has become a beautiful reminder of what happens when a community comes together to serve. ❤️

📍19 Center St, Elgin
12:00pm - 3:00pm
Eating in.. but still cooking out! 🙌

A powerful day serving our community alongside some incredible partners. 🤍

Because of the generosity of SBF Chicago, and Food For Friends, we were able to distribute 150 care bags to individuals and families experiencing homelessness throughout the city. From the Lexington Hotel to the river and nearby parks, every bag was a reminder that people are seen, valued, and cared for.

Thank you for helping us bring hope and compassion—each bag reflected care, dignity, and love. We’re grateful to serve together.
