A perk in our work is that we get to visit new places and meet new people. Today I was invited to visit a new #eventprofs #venue in #chicago: Rogue Philanthropy, the space boasts a flexible layout, awesome design, play lounge, bar area and a great industrial kitchen. According to their website,
"Rogue Philanthropy’s mission is to partner with organizations dedicated to making practical improvements in services for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, as well as partner with other local grassroots non-profits making our community stronger.
Rogue Philanthropy launched in late 2013 to raise funds for local grassroots non-profits in the Chicago area. Founding member Dave Gebhardt decided to take action after seeing his wife struggle to keep one of Chicago’s most innovative vocational programs for adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities running. Due to the states cuts in funding and a recession that has significantly lowered donations, great organizations like these must operate in crisis mode."
