A Giving Circle hosted by Chicago Foundation for Women
About our group
The West Side Giving Circle of CFW envisions a Chicago where all Black women and girls, and their families, can thrive. The Circle seeks to support the development and well-being of Black women and girls who live in West Side communities, helping them to build collective power and achieve excellence. We fight against the toll that systemic racism, and decades of neglect and disinvestment has taken on these communities. We fight for deep and lasting transformation, and a reimagination of community leadership that centers Black women and advances racial, social, and economic justice.
