As we begin recognizing WINGS 40th Anniversary, we reflect on the above accomplishments that YOU, our supporters, have empowered us to achieve.
While our innovative and comprehensive services have grown considerably over the years to make WINGS the largest provider of domestic violence services in Illinois, the need for our services continues to rise as well.
The Illinois Domestic Violence Hotline received more than 47,000 contacts in 2023, a 90% increase from pre-pandemic 2019.
To meet the increased needs we are seeing and expand into more communities, we have launched the Spreading Our WINGS Campaign. Thanks to a generous $100,000 challenge grant, all new donor gifts will be matched – doubling your donation! All increased giving from current donors over last year will be matched too!
WINGS is challenging teams of supporters to come together over 40 hours starting at midnight on Friday, April 25th through 4pm on Saturday, April 26th to raise this $100,000.
It is the perfect time to start a team and share with your contacts why you support WINGS. You don't have to wait until April 25th to begin.
