WOMEN LEADERS IN PHILANTHROPY

Women Leaders in Philanthropy began in 1995 to recognize the impact women have on bettering the quality of life in Oak Park and River Forest. Contributions from Women Leaders in Philanthropy support the causes of the Oak Park-River Forest Community Foundation.

By becoming a member now, your contribution will support the Communityworks partnership to:

  • Encourage youth to grow and succeed
  • Promote good environmental practices
  • Develop future leaders
