Our Mission
Chicago Women in Philanthropy (CWIP) is a community of philanthropic, corporate-giving, and nonprofit women and non-binary individuals.

Barbara started her career in hospitality, spending 10 years working in Chicago hotels. With a deep commitment to making a positive impact in her community, Barbara found her passion and career path leading her to the nonprofit industry– although like many of us, her path to working in fundraising was not a linear one.
