Oh how wonderful! I am from Arkansas and I found GC on a trip to Chicago and volunteered there on my vacation. It was one of the best parts of my vacation! Love love love them... I can't wait to visit again!

Gildas Chicago club is exemplary. Counselor Fredylne is so warm and compassionate in our ovarian cancer group that she teaches us to be that way to one another.

Haven't been since the pandemic, it was great to be back! The lecture was Day of Remembrance. Was much needed, was 1 year to the day of the loss of my Mother. The staff are all compassion & professional! Keep up the great work!
