We are honored to invite your organization to take part in Chicago Survivors’ 10-Year Anniversary Fundraising Walk and Survivor Picnic on Saturday, August 16th at McKinley Park.
This event will bring together survivors of violence, their families, community partners, and allies for a powerful day of healing, connection, and resource sharing. It’s a meaningful opportunity to stand in solidarity with those impacted by violence and to show your commitment to healing and community resilience.
About Chicago Survivors:
Since 2015, Chicago Survivors has supported over 4,500+ families affected by homicide. Our trauma-informed team provides 24/7 crisis response, grief counseling, community healing, criminal justice advocacy, and youth services across the city. Since June, we’ve had to lay off about 25% of our staff, and by August 16th, that number will grow to nearly 50% due to ongoing budget cuts and a tough economic climate. These are the advocates, counselors, and crisis responders who walk alongside families after unimaginable loss.
This fundraiser is critical. By donating or helping us spread the word, you’ll be helping preserve essential services and keep our team intact, so we can continue providing life-saving support to families across Chicago.
