VICTORIA IN THE PARK
KAN-WIN is proud to be celebrating 36 years of empowering survivors and fostering safe, healthy communities free from violence. Over the last three decades, we have evolved into a leading agency providing comprehensive care for Asian American survivors of domestic and sexual abuse.
Every spring, KAN-WIN organizes a benefit gala, the largest event dedicated to community-building and fundraising to assist survivors with essential resources.
350 ATTENDEES
At our largest annual gathering, we bring over 350 community leaders, organizational partners, allies, youth advocates, volunteers, clients, and staff together for an evening of connection, celebration, and action.
SURVIVOR STORYTELLING
Our gala is an opportunity to uplift survivor voices and break the silence around domestic & sexual abuse. We will be featuring one of our resilient survivors who will share their journey towards healing and empowerment.
COMMUNITY RECOGNITION
We strive to uplift our sponsors through our social networking platforms (e.g. Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Constant Contact) and print materials (e.g. program book, event signage), garnering engagement with over 10,000 community members in the Chicagoland area.
“Your work does not just provide services—it restores hope. The impact KAN-WIN has had on our lives will never be forgotten. You helped us rebuild when we were at our most vulnerable, and that is something my family will carry with us forever.”
