Clarendon Hills Infant Welfare

By Mike Ellis

About 25 Clarendon Hills Infant Welfare (CHIW) members and spouses gathered for “anchors aweigh” in the backyard of a private residence on Aug. 27. The nautical-themed event doubled as both a summer fundraiser and social gathering for the chapter, which supports the Infant Welfare Society of Chicago’s Angel Harvey Family Health Center on the city’s Northwest Side. Attendees were encouraged to sport Nantucket attire, and enjoyed hors d’oeuvres and libations throughout the night. Chapter social chair Danielle Wheeler provided catering services for the event through her company Maison Cuisine.
