Help us turn $30,000 into $60,000 for Chicagoland!
God is opening doors across our city—from new networking events to new leaders being trained! To help us meet this moment, a brand-new supporter has issued a challenge: they will match every gift given to LINC Chicago, up to $30,000, through the end of June.

This is a rare chance to double your impact in the closing weeks of our fiscal year.

Your $50 becomes $100 for leader training.

Your $500 becomes $1,000 for bringing LINC closer to all parts of our city.

Will you join us in doubling this gift to equip more leaders in Chicagoland?

We’ve been sharing pre-release copies of this book to non-profit leaders around Chicago. We are thrilled that our friends who wrote Built for Impact finally released their book today!!! You gotta grab a copy of this if you’re leading a non-profit!

April 18th is LINC’s next network gathering. You should come!!!

The week after that, our city director, Dave Fi**en, is speaking at a great event, hosted by our friends at Love Local Chicagoland.
We have a couple coupon codes for “first-come” discounted tickets for friends of LINC. Message us to get the code!

You can feel it… we’re more connected than ever, yet somehow more disconnected at the same time.

That’s exactly why the upcoming Local Talks: Transformation Through Connection matters.

Join us at Madcats in Palatine on Sunday, April 26 at 1:30pm for an afternoon of real conversations, real perspectives, and real community. Because stronger communities don’t just happen, they’re built through connection, one conversation at a time.

We’re bringing together the voices of Jason Stallard, Kimberly Dahlem, Dave Fi**en, and Karl Fay for a live keynote-style experience designed to cut through the noise and bring people back together.

Your ticket includes a drink and a seat in the kind of room where meaningful connection actually happens.

Carve out time to get clarity and keep that clarity in front of you. LINC network gatherings are built to help you keep the most important things at the forefront in whatever you’re leading. And the best thing is that it will matter for our city!
