Without funding from the Woman's Club, we literally would have turned away women and children who desperately needed our services. - Christie Dailey, Executive Director of the YWCA's Shelter for Battered Women and Their Children

FUNDING INFORMATION   

We support local projects because that's why the Woman's Club of Evanston was founded. In 1889, a small group of bright, active women came together to pursue their interests in cultural, philanthropic and civil activities and to improve their communities.
