The Evanston RoundTable has been granted $25,000 for one year to support the creation of a new newsletter dedicated to parenting, titled Raising Evanston. This initiative aims to provide valuable resources, insights, and community connections for parents in the Evanston area.

The funding will enable the RoundTable to hire writers, conduct research, and develop engaging content that resonates with the needs and interests of parents. By prioritizing the voices of Evanston families, the newsletter seeks to become a trusted source of information and support.

This grant marks an important step in enhancing community engagement and addressing the unique challenges faced by parents today, ultimately enriching the lives of families in Evanston.
