Become a Sponsor
At the heart of Infant Welfare is helping one another - neighbor to neighbor - to ensure a healthy, thriving local community. Our ability to donate over $100,000 a year to local organization is made possible by our generous sponsors. We have a variety of sponsorship levels that work with all businesses, big and small. Let's make a difference, together.
Each year, the Glen Ellyn Infant Welfare (GEIW) awards a community grant to support programs and initiatives that directly benefit children within Glen Ellyn School Districts 41, 89, and 87. The grant application period opens each February, with grant recipients selected and awards announced in May. Organizations seeking funding should demonstrate how their proposed project or program will have a direct, positive impact on children served by these school districts.
