You Make the Difference The costs to maintain our historic facilities and offer our outstanding lineup of programs, events, and services continue to grow. That’s why the ongoing support of our community – from people like you – is so important. Winnetka Community House remains one of the few privately funded community houses in the United States. Philanthropy accounts for nearly 13% of our operating budget, and the Annual Fund is the anchor of our fundraising efforts. This past year, contributions to the Annual Fund played a vital role in making all of this possible.
Thank you for your support! The mission of Winnetka Community House is to enrich the lives of North Shore residents, their families, and friends by providing diverse educational, cultural, social and recreational opportunities for people of all ages. This privately supported, unique facility does not receive tax dollars.
