Fuel for Change
At Factor, we believe everyone deserves access to wholesome, nutritious meals. That’s why we created Fuel for Change: an initiative dedicated to fighting food insecurity and empowering local communities, mission-driven organizations, and the next generation of culinary professionals through accessible, nourishing food.
By donating meals and surplus ingredients, investing in community initiatives, and forming partnerships with local organizations, we aim to make a lasting difference. Join us in the fight to end hunger and fuel the potential of our local neighborhoods.
Ronald McDonald House Charities of Chicagoland & Northwest Indiana
Ronald McDonald House Charities of Chicagoland & Northwest Indiana exists so families can get better together. Through its six area Ronald McDonald Houses and four Ronald McDonald Family Rooms, families can stay close to their hospitalized child and access the care and resources they need. Factor meals are distributed weekly across these locations, providing nourishing and convenient options, alleviating the burden of cooking and dining out. This allows families to focus solely on their child's critical medical care.
American Cancer Society
The partnership between the American Cancer Society and Factor began out of a need for health systems to help cancer patients access food during the Covid-19 pandemic. It illuminated the far deeper issue of food insecurity. Patient testimonials reveal that this partnership has helped in many ways including accessing nutritious meals, maintaining weight, and alleviating the burdens of preparing meals for themselves and their family during treatment. Each week, Factor delivers meals to 30 American Cancer Society partner hospitals in Illinois..png)
