We're so excited to spend August giving back to our community! 🥯💛

All month long, Schmaltz Delicatessen is supporting DuPage PADS, an incredible organization that helps unhoused residents right here in DuPage County. For every breakfast bagel sandwich you order, we're donating $1 toward their mission.

So stop by, grab one of our delicious breakfast sandwiches, and know that your bite is doing some good too. Great food, great cause — see you soon! Mark & Tonia

Throughout August, $1 from Every Breakfast Bagel Sandwich Sold Will Benefit DuPage Pads

Schmaltz Delicatessen is proud to announce its participation in the 11th Annual National Deli Month, an international celebration honoring the rich traditions of Jewish delicatessens while supporting local charitable organizations. Throughout the month of August, Schmaltz Delicatessen will donate $1 from every breakfast bagel sandwich sold to PADS of DuPage County, helping provide shelter, housing assistance, and supportive services for neighbors experiencing homelessness.
National Deli Month brings together some of North America's finest delicatessens to celebrate authentic Jewish deli cuisine while reinforcing a tradition that has long been part of neighborhood delis—giving back to the communities they call home. Every day during August, participating delis across the country feature specialty offerings and donate a portion of their proceeds to a local nonprofit of their choosing. www.delimonth.com

DuPage Pads works to end homelessness by providing emergency shelter, affordable housing solutions, and comprehensive support services that empower individuals and families to achieve long-term stability and independence. Every breakfast bagel sandwich purchased at Schmaltz during August will directly support these life-changing programs.

You can participate simply by visiting Schmaltz Delicatessen throughout the month of August by ordering any of our eleven breakfast bagel sandwiches, which are available all day long. It is an easy and delicious way to enjoy one of Chicagoland's favorite breakfast destinations while supporting an important local cause.
