December 2017
Join us at the 19th Annual Holiday Housewalk & Market of The Infant Welfare Society (IWS) of Oak Park an River Forest. The IWS program, begun by a generous group of community-minded women who wanted to assure children could have fresh milk, has become a multi-faceted effort that raises funds so that children in more than 80 communities receive much-needed medical, dental and behavioral health services. As their specific work evolves, their mission of caring for the health of children is the same today as it was over a century ago.  A percentage of all sales at the Holiday Market are donated to the Children's Clinic.
