Latest Deerfield Happenings

Deerfield Mayor Peggy Noland toured the new Jim and Jan Moran Family Center Campus on May 5th. We are thrilled to have her support - she'll be speaking at our upcoming Open House sponsored by CA & Company Catering!

Construction prep work is underway and a major clean-out has begun. Furniture Tag Sale #2 was a success (raising $800!) AND the Thrift Store and Facility Teams are taking the best items left to be sold at WID's BloomingSales Thrift Store!
Are you interested in helping us tidy up before the Open House?
If so, send us an email: lfrank@womenindistress.org.

A BIG THANK YOU to everyone who is pitching in!
