The Western Suburbs Giving Circle of the Chicago Foundation for Women invited current and prospective members to kick off another year of grantmaking at their “Cocktails for a Cause” event at Lifetime Fitness Oak Brook on Wednesday, Oct. 9.
The group aimed to lay the groundwork for increasing investment in women’s health and reproductive justice, economic well-being, and safety from violence in the western suburbs. Since 2016, WSGC awarded over $245,000 to local organizations addressing the needs of women and girls.
As part of a nationwide movement in women’s philanthropy, WSGC continues to amplify women’s voices and advocate for their needs through grants that create meaningful impact and improved lives.
