The Abby
Foundation was named after the late first lady Abigail Adams who
realized the great potential of women. She understood that women
should have a voice in decisions regarding this great nation. A
proponent of the passage of women's right to vote, she made great
strides in the pursuit of women's fundamental rights - liberties
that we often take for granted.
Our
Mission...
A nonprofit group, the Abby Foundation’s goal is to raise yearly
funds that benefit women and children in the South and Southwest
Suburbs of Chicago. For 22 years, the grassroots group has hosted
an August luncheon that raises more than $50,000 each year. That
money is distributed in two ways: college scholarships to south
suburban women and grants to local existing organizations that
assist women and children.
