Summer officially kicked-off with the debut of an annual fundraiser hosted by The Woman’s Board of Northwestern Memorial Hospital. More than 300 guests gathered at Chicago’s Saddle & Cycle Club to christen Summer Soiree, charting a new course that will introduce various summer-themed fundraisers hosted by The Woman’s Board every June. This year’s inaugural party was themed Anchors Aweigh and included cocktails and cuisine served under the stars and dancing to the acclaimed yacht rock band Anchor’s Away. The fun-filled evening raised $230,000 in support of The Woman’s Board’s $4.6 million pledge to fund comprehensive reproductive care across a woman’s lifetime. Co-chairs included a new generation of Woman’s Board members, including Lake Bluff ’s Emily Krall, Winnetka’s Emily Sturgess, and Chicago’s Annie Hudson and Bridget Tully Vrabel. wbnorthwestern.org
