The Team Members at Endeavor Health's Glenbrook Hospital and Wellbeing Committee went above and beyond for WINGS back in May while organizing & donating baskets to our moms for Mother's Day. Not only did they have 22 different departments of the hospital participate in this donation drive, but they even had the President of the hospital come and help load the truck, since there was so many items! The survivors of WINGS received baskets full of brand new goodies like shampoo, baby clothes, slippers, dental care items, and more! It is generosity like this that is so critical in helping us achieve our mission of providing help to those affected by domestic violence. From all of us at WINGS, thank you! #donationdrive #makingadifferent #givingback #GlenbrookIL #GlenbrookHospital

Great news! We were recently awarded a generous grant from Rotary Club of Schaumburg Hoffman Estates! This funding will support our Children and Family Services program, which pairs each child entering WINGS Safe Houses and Housing Programs with a dedicated Children's Advocate. These advocates create a safe environment for the children to meet their goals and develop effective coping skills and to understand that the #domesticviolence that occurred in their family is not their fault. Rotary Club of Schaumburg Hoffman Estates also recently donated a large amount of school supplies to our Back To School Program. We are so very grateful for ALL of this support and how this groups initiatives embody the spirit of service and dedication to making a meaningful difference in people's lives. #RotariansInAction #Rotarians #nonprofitgrants #nonprofitsuport
