Our Charity

Each year, Windycon chooses a charity to support. This year, we've selected Marshmallow's Hope .

Marshmallow’s HOPE is a nonprofit behavioral health clinic based in Rockford, Illinois, on a mission to save young lives and strengthen families through free, trauma-informed mental health care. We serve youth and families all across the Northern Illinois region, offering crisis counseling, suicide prevention education, therapeutic support groups, and school-based outreach; all at no cost to those we serve.

We believe no young person should ever feel like they’re facing their struggles alone. By removing financial barriers and providing immediate access to compassionate, evidence-based care, we give hope to those who need it most—when they need it most.

When you support Marshmallow’s HOPE, you’re not just donating to a cause; you’re directly funding life-saving services. Every dollar goes toward providing free mental health care, crisis support, and education to youth and families in need. You’re helping prevent suicide, restore families, and remind vulnerable young people that their lives truly matter.
