Introducing our latest recipient of Milt's Community Gift of the Month: Hersh's Fridge!

Spearheaded by Solu and Rabbi Hody Nemes, this endeavor is the first kosher Community Fridge in the United States. As many of you know, we at Milt's are close with our friends at Solu, are actively concerned about growing food insecurity, and with the Goldberg-Polin families. With the ongoing uncertainty with SNAP benefits, it is more important than ever to help and be involved. Please visit https://www.solu.us/fridge to donate and for other giving opportunities!

For people that have followed us closely over the past few years, you know there are a few causes and organizations we hold dearly. One is Margaret's Village. We have been deeply invested in their mission to support women, children, and families on Chicago’s South Side, and we have witnessed first-hand the transformative impact they have on our community.

You are all invited to a special evening celebrating the incredible work of Margaret’s Village, it would mean so much to us for you to join us in honoring their work at the 2025 Sheltering Hope, Building Community Gala. We at Milt's, former owner Jeff Aeder, and our chef Bryan Gryka are being honored with the Humanitarian Award at this gala.

Date: Thursday, October 9, 2025
Time: 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Location: Swissotel Chicago 323 W Wacker Drive Chicago Il. 60601

This event will feature cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, dinner and dancing. The food at the event will not be kosher, but we are working on arrangements for kosher-keeping diners. In addition to our honors, Margaret's Village will also honor outstanding individuals and organizations committed to our mission. Even if you don't plan on eating, showing up for support matters. See you then!

Ticket Options:

Single Ticket: $200

Young Professional: $125

Student/Youth: $50
