Earlier this month, veterans of the Chicago financial services scene pitched in to help people who are not on their client list. On October 14, members from the Security Traders Association of Chicago gathered at a local Ronald McDonald House to prepare and serve a meal for the families staying at the house. Ronald McDonald Houses are homes near hospitals where family members can stay while a family member receives treatments for serious illnesses.
Traders invites you to view a gallery of images from the recent STAC Meals From the Heart volunteer program.
The Meals from the Heart program brought together representatives from several Chicago firms — such as Thomson Reuters, TD Ameritrade, Ion Trading, Charles Schwab, Citi and other financial firms — toplan the menu, purchase the ingredients, and prepare the meal. This service gives the families time to relax and replenish after spending a long day at the hospital at their childs bedside, said one rep from STAC.
STAC’s next community service opportunity is October 29 where volunteer memebrs will pack meals for those in need around the world at the Feed My Starving Children facility in Libertyville.
