Mutual Ground, Inc. Endowment Fund

Established 2004

Mutual Ground
Mutual Ground

This endowment was established to support the operating and capital needs of Mutual Ground, Inc. of Aurora.

Incorporated in 1975, Mutual Ground serves the victims of domestic violence and sexual assault in Kendall and southern Kane Counties.

The agency’s shelter for women and children is the second oldest in the State of Illinois.

Other services provided by the agency include a twenty-four hour bilingual crisis line, medical and legal advocacy, a transitional housing program and prevention education programs.

All Mutual Ground programs are aimed at empowering victims to have safe, independent and violence-free lives.

…you can always start small, even $25 can make a difference. Remember we can’t take our money with us. Even if it’s just your gift of time. Volunteer and get involved.

A community foundation is a donor-driven organization that helps donors custom-design funds that reflect their charitable interests. Through the years, grants from these funds have made a significant impact on our local communities.

Thank you very much for supporting my college education for these four years. I will never be able to repay you for the opportunity that this scholarship has given to me.

Julia H.

[Renewing Scholarship Recipient] Graduate of Hinkley-Big Rock High School

As a first-generation college student from a low-income family, I was worried about how I was going to pay for books and supplies. This scholarship will allow me to focus more on my studies instead of worrying about how to afford college. I am working to not only create opportunities for myself but to motivate future generations. Thank you so much for helping me along this journey!
