Story

Chicago Foundation for Women’s Impact Awards celebrate bold organizations and changemakers working tirelessly to ensure women, girls, and gender-expansive individuals have the support they need to succeed. As we commemorate CFW’s 40th Anniversary and Women’s History Month, we honor our Founding Mothers, Marjorie Craig Benton, Sunny Fischer, Iris J. Krieg, and Lucia Woods Lindley, who ignited a movement and the trailblazers who continue to expand its reach through the Founders’ Fund.

Join us for an inspiring evening of celebration and reflection, honoring the extraordinary organizations driving a brighter and more equitable future for the Chicago region.
