Esperanza hosts several events throughout the year to raise funds to support our mission. Our events are successful when individuals and corporations get involved. There are many opportunities, including attending the event, donating products and gift cards for our silent and live auctions, and sponsoring an event at one of three levels. Contact the development office at (312) 243-6097 for more information. We hope to see you at our next event!
