The team at Jennings Volkswagen understands that we’re part of a larger community, so we’re happy to give back. We serve the community in a variety of different ways, including donations to organizations like the Wright-Way Rescue Fundraiser and participation in events like the Edgebrook Community Association 4th of July Parade. One of the organizations that is dearest to us is Misericordia, which provides an important community and resources for individuals with mild to profound developmental disabilities.
About Misericordia
Located on the North Side of Chicago, Misericordia is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation that provides individuals with developmental disabilities in Evanston and throughout greater Chicagoland with essential support. Under the leadership of the Catholic Archdiocese and Sisters of Mercy, Misericordia includes more than 600 residents from a wide range of social, racial, religious, and economic backgrounds. In addition to offering essential human services like food, shelter, and community, Misericordia also provides skilled medical services from their nursing residents.
Thanks to the support they receive, Misericordia is able to help individuals with disabilities achieve a life of maximum independence in an environment that is respectful, challenging, and spiritually fulfilling, which helps them achieve their fullest potential.
Jennings Volkswagen Does its Part
While Misericordia receives support from the Illinois Department of Human Services and other state-based entities, it also depends on private funding to keep its operations and services strong. Jennings Volkswagen provides a level of support for this organization, and we’re proud to say that some of the members of Misericordia work right here at our dealership.
