Each year the Woodfield Area Children’s Organization (WACO) takes nearly 600 underprivileged preschoolers Christmas shopping for themselves and their families. All proceeds from the Founders Dinner will go to help fund this program.

The Woodfield Area Children’s Organization is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Since 1979 WACO has been dedicated to creating positive childhood memories, providing basic needs, along with educational support for children living at or below poverty level in Chicago's northwest and western suburbs. A full 97 cents of every dollar we raise goes to help the kids. Please visit our website waco4kids.org.
