Compassion and community support makes an incredible difference — and that’s exactly what Sandi Coletto and the Endeavor Health (previously Northwest Community Hospital) team continue to show through their support of WINGS.

Once again, Sandi, a WINGS Survivor Lifeline mentor and dedicated Endeavor staff member, poured her heart into organizing the annual Mother’s Day Raffle benefiting the WINGS Suburban Safe House. From the incredible baskets created by each department to the special raffle drawing held the Friday before Mother’s Day, every detail reflected the generosity and compassion of Sandi and this amazing community at Endeavor!

Most importantly, every dollar raised will go directly toward supporting survivors and families staying at the Suburban Safe House.

Sandi and the entire team remind us what community truly looks like — people coming together to bring hope, comfort, and support to those who need it most. We are deeply grateful. 💜
