From the Daily Herald:
“The president and CEO of Northern Illinois Food Bank has been named 2025 Food Bank Leader of the Year by…Food Bank News.”
“Julie Yurko, who has led NIFB since 2014, was recognized for her ‘tireless commitment to centering neighbors, strengthening satisfaction and loyalty across the Food Bank’s network, and driving innovation to meet the evolving needs of Northern Illinois communities,’ the publication writes,” according to the Daily Herald.
Having Just read an article by Thomas Hampson about Food Banks from the Illinois Family Institute, I wondered how much its executives are bring paid.
