Member-Led Go Forth International Helps Those in Need
Our members are among the most philanthropic people in their respective communities, and we love hearing about the good works they do for others. Angie DeLeon and her family, longtime members of Midtown Athletic Club in Willowbrook, IL, are true stewards of hope and charity. When Angie retired from Cook County Hospital as a registered nurse in 2004, she and a few other retired healthcare workers founded Go Forth International, a non-profit organization that provides healthcare services to global communities in need. The missions each run about three months at a time and are staffed by a team of volunteers. Most recently, the group went to the Philippines and provided health screenings, eye checkups, and dental hygiene to over 10,000 patients. We are truly inspired by Angie and her dedication to the global community. The world needs more people like her in it.
