Chicks for Charity hosts Chicks Mix ’ 25

Chicks for Charity, a nonprofit organization that inspires the joy and dignity of philanthropy in women and girls, will host its annual fund-raising event, Chicks Mix ’25, on Wednesday, June 18, from 5 to 9 p.m., at Birchwood Meadow, 10 Turtle Creek Circle, Swanton.

The event includes live music from the Toledo School for the Arts’ Steel Drum Band, basket raffles, a silent auction, food, drinks and Junior Chicktinis, too.

Every penny raised will directly support the designated charity, HOPE Toledo. HOPE Toledo supports pre-K through post-secondary education, helping to create generational wealth and economic changes for the betterment of our kids and our community.

“At Chicks for Charity, we celebrate doing something simple and fun with family, friends or co-workers to raise money to support under-the-radar charities in northwest Ohio,” said Martha Vetter, founder of Chicks for Charity. “Our purpose is to provide women and girls with the inspiration and opportunity to participate in giving back, maximize our collective impact and experience the joy of being philanthropic.”

Membership is free to anyone who wants to have fun, do good and give back.

“It’s not about how much you give. We celebrate the $11.38 from a Junior Chick’s lemonade stand the same way as the $2,500 from a big neighborhood basketball tournament. The goal is simple— keep it easy, keep it fun, raise a few dollars and help others,” Vetter added.

Tickets for Chicks Mix ‘25 are $50 for Chicks, ages 19 and older, and $25 for Junior Chicks, ages three to 18. Space is limited. Purchase tickets at chicksfor charity.com.
