On August 24th, L’Arche Chicago core members, assistants, board members, staff and friends volunteered to mix, fry, coat, package and sell three varieties of donuts at the Oak Park Farmer’s Market. In all, we contributed towards the production of approximately 5000 donuts, doing our part to spread joy and donuts across the Oak Park River Forest region.

We hope you will enjoy these photos!
