Throughout 2018, we are celebrating 135 years of meeting every child, every family, where their need is greatest. Doing whatever it takes so children and families can thrive. We are proud of our legacy of meeting the changing needs of vulnerable families throughout Illinois and inspired by the children and families we serve and their stories of resilience.
Hope with Wings Tour
In June, our CEO Nancy Ronquillo and trustee Paul Wood took flight in a vintage two-seater plane to visit program sites across Illinois, raising funds and friends along the way. Stops included Rockford, East St. Louis, Bloomington and Chicago where we celebrated with staff, donors and friends. Check out our blog to view photos and videos form the Hope with Wings tour!
Connecting our Legacy to Building Bright Futures
