Team Chicago Western Suburbs is climbing again!!! Please join us as we come together to share our common experience, build community, and raise awareness.
Climb Out of the Darkness is an annual, international fundraiser for Postpartum Support International (PSI). The Climb is a community walk and international fundraiser for survivors, providers, and members of the community to come together. Raising awareness for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, The Climb brings us together to shine a light on a darkness we often don't speak about. Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders are the most common complication of pregnancy and childbirth. PSI promotes awareness, prevention, and treatment of mental health issues related to childbearing in every country worldwide. We support moms and dads, community programs, and healthcare providers.
Last year, Team Chicago Western Suburbs raised over $4,000 for Mom2Mom Downers Grove, a peer-to-peer support group for new and expectant mothers struggling with the transition to motherhood. Let's see if we can top that number this year!!
Join us for a family friendly walk around beautiful Lake Ellyn, fun activities, giveaways, and playtime at the park! Please bring a picnic lunch to enjoy as we mingle with old and new friends in support of families impacted by perinatal mood and anxiety disorders.
