Join us this Holiday Season in #ILGiveBig, part of a global movement dedicated to giving back and celebrating a new tradition of generosity! Help JASC and other Illinois service organizations meet our goal to raise $12 million from 100,000 individual donors on December 2^nd!

Consider giving back to JASC and our programs such as Out of the House, which serves our seniors and their families by helping the seniors maintain a healthy, well-rounded life through old and new friendships, physical exercise, and stimulating activities.

Your gift can help impact the lives our neighbors and fellow community members today! Donating a monetary gift or your time as a volunteer are ways that you can make a difference during this Giving Season. Help be a part of making a difference in our community by being a part of #ILGiveBig.
