Dear Friends,

Thanks to the generosity of our many patrons, volunteers and staff, the 2010–2011 fiscal year was noteworthy for Winnetka Community House’s fundraising efforts. A total of $1,022,675 was raised through the Annual Fund; Restricted Gifts; Antiques + Modernism Winnetka Show; the Board of Governor’s House Party; and the Woman’s Board House Productions: Wine Tasting; Breakfast with Santa; Bingo; Movie Night; and theatre group activities. We are also pleased to announce that as part of our restricted giving over $159,500 was raised in commemoration of Winnetka Community House’s 100th Anniversary.

In addition to our community’s generous support, these success stories were made possible by our devoted Woman’s Board, Sustainers, the Board of Governor’s leadership, and many other dedicated volunteers’ and staffs’ hard work.

As part of our centennial year, our goal is not only to celebrate the past, but to look to the future with confidence and assurance that we are providing you with a vital and multigenerational community house. To that end, we have recently completed our Strategic Plan. Implementation of the plan has already begun as we use the plan to help navigate the future of the organization. We sincerely appreciate those of you who provided input. We value your partnership and look forward to serving the community for many years to come.

With gratitude,

Timothy P. McCabe
Executive Director
