Appeal

Throughout the year we host Banquets that are geared toward fundraising, exposing our donors to highlights of what is going on at the Center, introduce new people to the activities of the Center, and speak about where we are going in the future.

We host these events throughout the Chicagoland area and this fall we are hosting a breakfast in Wilmette, IL on October 8^th from 9-11am and dinner on October 28^th from 6:30-8:30 in Wheaton, IL.  If you would like to attend please send an e-mail to Anna@familyempower.org or call our office at 773-262-0760.
