Linked in Friendship, Connected in Service

Who We Are

The Links, Incorporated is an international, not-for-profit corporation, established in 1946. It is one of the nation’s oldest and largest volunteer service organizations committed to enriching, sustaining, and ensuring the culture and economic survival of African Americans and other people of African ancestry.


West Towns (IL) was breaking ground from the start, sponsoring a performance of the Broadway musical “The Wiz” at the Shubert Theater in Chicago. (Now known as Bank of America Theater) The Chapter also began our commitment to Services to Youth with a Career Conference for High School Students in May 1977. In 1978 the chapter held a Human Rights Day luncheon at the home of noted sculptor and chapter member Link Geraldine McCullough’s home and studio.

Welcome!

Welcome to the West Towns Illinois Chapter of The Links, Incorporated website. We appreciate you visiting our site to see some of the transformative projects and initiatives we are implementing.


Our chapter is built on a legacy of gifted, spiritual, hardworking and collaborative women. This year we celebrate 45 years of friendship and service. We continue to challenge ourselves to develop creative ways to deliver service to the communities we serve during a global pandemic (COVID-19 and Social and Environmental Injustice).

Each member of our chapter is dedicated to improving the health and wellbeing of our community and our world. We are making a difference. We are proud of what we have accomplished, and we are determined to make transformational change through friendship and service.


Thank you to our community partners, friends and guests for sharing our passion to create a better future for all of us. None of what we do, would be possible without you.
