Another thing that makes Gilda's Club Chicago special is that membership is free of charge to people living with cancer. Gilda's Club is a not-for-profit organization supported by donations from individuals, corporations and foundations. In order to sustain our unique program, Gilda's Club Board members, staff and volunteers work hard to build a financial foundation that allows us to offer our free program to members. In keeping with our philosophy Gilda's Club does not solicit our membership for donations, although if interested, we welcome member participation. If you, or someone you know, would like to be kept informed about Gilda's Club special events, donation opportunities or other ways to support us, please contact Stephen Majsak stephenmajsak@gildasclubchicago.org.
