Although the end of August signals a time when summertime activities start to slow down, that’s not the case for CSWC! The fun continues throughout September, and we hope you’ll join us.

Check out the events we have planned for the month and consider coming out to one (or more!) of them. We’d love to see you there.

National Nonprofit Day is August 17!

Today, we’re celebrating the nonprofits, volunteers, staff, and community members who work together to make a difference every day. From supporting local families to strengthening our communities, every act of service matters.

Here are four ways you can make an impact:
🙋‍♀️ VOLUNTEER: Give a few hours of your time to a local cause you care about.
🤝 JOIN: Become a member of a local nonprofit organization, like the Carol Stream Woman’s Club (cswomansclub.org), and help make a difference right here in our community.
💚 DONATE: Make a financial contribution or donate needed supplies to a nonprofit.
📣 ADVOCATE: Share a nonprofit’s mission, events, or impact on social media and help spread the word!

National Nonprofit Day also recognizes the history of charitable organizations, commemorating the signing of the Tariff Act of 1894 on August 17, which provided federal income tax exemptions for charitable institutions.

📅 SAVE THE DATE!
The Carol Stream Woman’s Club is excited to partner with Barn Owl Garden Center for a Community Give Back Day on Saturday, September 19!

Here’s how you can help: Shop at Barn Owl that day, and 10% of the day’s sales (excluding the Farmer's Market) will be donated to support CSWC’s programs and initiatives, including scholarships for local high school students, school-supply and food donation drives, collections of personal-care items for veterans and women who have experienced domestic violence—and much more!

So mark your calendar, share this post, bring your friends, and come shop for a great cause!

A big THANK YOU to Barn Owl for partnering with CSWC and helping us make a positive impact in our community! 💚

We’ll see you at Barn Owl on September 19!

Our annual picnic is less than a week away, and we'd love for you to join us! You don't have to be a CSWC member to attend—we invite residents of Carol Stream and the surrounding areas to come meet us and learn about the ways we help the Carol Stream community.

Speaking of that, we are collecting items for local veterans and for women currently staying at a shelter for those who have experienced domestic violence. We'll have two collection boxes at the picnic, so we encourage everyone to come out, meet some new friends, enjoy a bunch of delicious food, and support these two worthy causes.

WHEN: Tuesday, August 18, 6 p.m.
WHERE: Barbara O'Rahilly Volunteer Park, 302 Kuhn Road
