The Hinsdale Auxiliary of Brightpoint (formerly Children’s Home & Aid) hosted its 69th annual Derby Day party. One of the oldest annual events in the Western suburbs, this year’s event was held at Butterfield Country Club in Oak Brook and raised over $120,000, benefitting Brightpoint’s family-focused programs across 67 counties in Illinois.

Formerly operating as Children’s Home & Aid, Brightpoint has served Illinois since 1883. Along with the recent rebrand, Brightpoint has recently refocused its work by focusing on family-based prevention and equity-driven programs and recognizing that families are the most critical asset for child and youth wellbeing.
