Because of this community, we’ve raised $3,600! 🎉

Your generosity will directly support our Vogue School, HIV/STI screening, sexual and health education, food access, gender-affirming care, and more. Most importantly, it ensures that young people always have a safe and affirming place to be who they are — and grow into who they want to be.

As we wrap up this campaign, we’re deeply grateful for every gift, share, and message of support. If you haven’t made a gift yet, there’s still time! Donate at taskforcechicago.org/donate and help power what’s next for 2026.

Access to health care services like HIV testing and prevention. Access to healthy, fresh food right in your own neighborhood. Connection to peers who truly get your lives, struggles, and needs. That’s what TaskForce provides—and right now we’re trying to raise $10,000 before the end of the year to financially support this work, from supplies and staffing to keeping services consistent and free when possible. Donate today and help make sure LGBTQ+ youth can keep counting on TaskForce. Visit taskforcechicago.org/donate.

Though the world has changed wildly in the last 35 years, at TaskForce, one thing remains constant: our commitment to a bright future for LGBTQ+ youth of color in Chicago. Before the year ends, we’re working to raise $10,000 to financially support the programs and direct services that keep young people cared for, connected, and safe. If you’ve ever believed in what TaskForce makes possible, please give today—every donation helps us close the gap and start the new year strong. Visit taskforcechicago.org/donate.

TaskForce offers more than just the Vogue School — it’s a community! These voices reflect what so many already know: TaskForce shows up, creates space, and helps people grow.

We’re working to raise $10,000 before the end of the year to keep this community thriving and accessible.
If TaskForce has ever impacted you, consider giving back today! Visit http://taskforcechicago.org/donate.

This week is the last week TaskForce will be open before our holiday break; we’ll be closed December 20 – January 4!

If you need support, we encourage you to stop by this week for free winter coats and clothing, our food pantry, and community care.

While we are always honored to serve, this pause allows our incredible team—who have shown up for our community all year long—to rest, recharge, and return ready to continue the work.

We look forward to welcoming you back in the new year! 💜

During this busy holiday season, take a moment to slow down with us! TaskForce is hosting a free Spa Day designed to help our community rest, reset, and feel supported. Join us for facials, wellness activities, and a calming space to breathe — open to LGBTQ+ youth and community members on the West Side.

Registration is free but required. Reserve your spot at bit.ly/TF_SpaDay.

This season, we’re honored to share the voices of families like KJ and her daughter, Kanaya — who found community, care, and a sense of belonging at TaskForce.

From the clothing closet to the food pantry to the love and affirmation our youth receive every day, their story is a reminder of why this work matters.

As we close out the year, we’re working to raise $10,000 to keep these doors open and these services free.

If TaskForce has touched you — or if you believe in creating safe, joyful spaces for West Side youth — we invite you to give today at taskforcechicago.org/donate.
