West Loop Gate A Community (C-O Rev James J Close)

Due to the outbreak of COVID-19, the West Loop Community Organization (WLCO) has been unable to host our traditional fundraising  and networking events in 2020, including the Taste of Randolph Street, which was cancelled for the first time in over 20 years.
 
As your neighborhood 501(c)(3), we strives to improve the quality of life for everyone in our community by coordinating public planning, advocating community needs to our neighbors, and a whole lot more. And we've been doing it since 1991. Our team brings has vast experience in commercial finance, administrative management, participatory design practices, and progressive leadership. And we are proud to be racially and ethnically diverse, represent the LGBTQ community, and to be of many different faiths. We are an inclusive group of people passionate about our home, and we understand that the best way to influence change and develop a community is to build relationships, to share our stories of impact, and to engage and learn from the people within the community we serve.

We can’t do this without you! Not only do we need your help now more than ever, we need you to spread the word. Please share this message of support to your friends and neighbors, and encourage them to help us too! Donations can be made here, and anyone can volunteer with us through westloop.org/contact. As they say: it takes a village.

Thank you for being a part of our amazing community. We hope you and yours stay safe throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, and we are grateful for everyone that helps to make the West Loop so special.
