The Baird & Warner Good Will Network raised $50,000 for five Chicagoland charities this month.

The Baird & Warner Good Will Network donated $50,000 to Chicagoland charities this month. This grant is in addition to a nearly $60,000 contribution that Baird & Warner made earlier this year to a number of other Chicago area nonprofit organizations, bringing its total Good Will Network donations to more than $1.5 million.

“Our sense of community and local responsibility has been a core value for Baird & Warner all the way back to our founding in 1855,” said Jennifer Alter Warden, president of residential sales at Baird & Warner.  “The fact that our broker associates and staff are extremely busy and still make it a priority to contribute time and money to support their neighbors speaks volumes for the level of integrity within our company. We are deeply committed to giving back to the communities that have made us successful.”

Of the total $50,000 Good Will Network donation, $15,000 went to Ronald McDonald House, $10,000 was given to A Safe Place, Connections for the Homeless and West Suburban PADS, and $5,000 went to Midwest Palliative & Hospice CareCenter. These five grant recipients were chosen out of more than 20 nonprofits that Baird & Warner branch offices have supported in the past year.
