CHICAGO (Aug. 1, 2017) — Baird & Warner, Chicagoland's largest locally owned independent residential real estate services company, has announced its charitable arm, the Good Will Network, will donate $120,000 in grants this year to nonprofit organizations that provide shelter and homelessness services to people at risk.

This year’s Good Will Network initiative, called “$24K of Solid Good,” invites the public to vote online in choosing the five winning organizations that will each receive $24,000. The donations mark a 20 percent increase from last year’s Good Will Network donation amount.

“Baird & Warner has been serving every corner of the Chicagoland area since 1855, and any time we see an opportunity to give back to the communities we serve, we seize it,” said Jennifer Alter Warden, chief operating officer and executive vice president of Baird & Warner, who leads the Good Will Network’s efforts.

“Homelessness affects an estimated 82,000 people in the city of Chicago alone. We increased the amount awarded this year to sustain a broader positive impact and help lower the number of homelessness in communities across the entire region.”
