Prime Volunteers at Misericordia’s Family Fest
Northbrook, IL – Nine Prime Publishing employees volunteered at Misericordia’s Family Fest Sunday, Sept. 13, selling Hearts & Flour Bakery’s goods to raise funds for the Misericordia community.
Family Fest is the biggest annual fundraiser of the year for Chicago’s Misericordia, which serves and houses more than 600 children and adults with mild to profound developmental disabilities, many of whom are also physically challenged.
In Misericordia’s Hearts & Flour Bakery, residents gain real-life work experience in making and packaging cookies, brownies, and more. Prime employees helped with the bakery booth at the fest.
“Volunteering at the main bakery booth was great — everyone was super nice and welcoming, and the baked goods looked delicious. Homemade goodies were flying off the shelves — especially the Irish Soda Bread! I even bought myself a few loaves to take home and share with my family,” said Jenny Benoit, managing editor.
The fest, which draws 10,000 people each year, impressed our editors with its size and the enthusiasm of the Misericordia community.
Emily Ramirez, editor, said, “I think I can speak for everyone when I say that it was a ton of fun to volunteer. This is clearly a huge event that many families wait for all year. I didn’t really know what to expect, but when I got there, I was amazed. Without even walking into the grounds, you could tell how popular the fest was from the fact that the cabbie who drove me there knew exactly what I was talking about.”
Beth Ann Morley, editor, said “I had so much fun volunteering at Misericordia. There were a ton of people at the event, so the volunteers were never short of things to do. Everyone seemed to love the baked goods, and after buying my own loaf of banana bread, I learned for myself that their baked goods are amazing.”
Dana Byerwalter, editor, said “It seems like the people who volunteered at and work for Misericordia are really like a family. When someone they knew won a raffle, everyone was very excited and spreading the news and just so happy for her. As an added bonus, the woman who won the raffle immediately donated the money back to Misericordia.”

Food Team Volunteers at Uptown Cafe in Chicago
Northbrook, IL – Eleven Prime Publishing employees visited a Chicago anti-hunger organization on July 13 to volunteer by serving hot meals to more than 90 people in need.
Jewish United Fund’s Uptown Café, a kosher anti-hunger program, provides hot meals in a restaurant-style setting. The café is open three days a week for dinner and on Sundays for brunch.
Samantha Rifkin, JUF Uptown Café coordinator and nutrition coordinator, said that people stuck between a rock and a hard place still deserve to be treated with dignity, which is why Uptown Café operates differently than cafeteria-style soup kitchens.
At the café within the EZRA Multi Service Center, they strive to create a sense of safety and community for diners, she said.
Prime staff underwent a 30-minute orientation before serving over 90 hot meals in the café.
Danielle Zimmerman, food team community editor, said “We all had a wonderful time and found serving in the Cafe to be a very rewarding and memorable experience. We all look forward to volunteering again soon, whether it’s through our company or on our own.”
“It was wonderful to work together for the sake of doing good in the community,” Zimmerman said.
