    Acts of Wisdom is a non-profit charity organization dedicated to assist those in rural Africa in their quest to obtain quality, relevant education.

Join us for an inspiring evening at “A Night of Hope,” a fundraiser hosted by Acts of Wisdom. Acts of Wisdom was founded 11 years ago by La Grange High School alum Brad Otto. While in Africa, Brad noticed the education crisis in Ethiopia and started Acts of Wisdom.

Since then, Acts of Wisdom is dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children in Ethiopia, Liberia, and Kenya. Acts of Wisdom is helping over 7,000 students in these three countries. They have delivered over 65,000 schoolbooks, brought dropout rates down from 35% to .9%, expanded classrooms, improved infrastructure, and has helped young women stay in school.

A Night of Hope will help continue this work in Liberia by raising funds to continue construction of a brand-new school that will expand its capacity from 180 elementary students to over 700 elementary and junior high students.

A Night of Hope will be held Thursday, Oct. 2 from 5:30-8 p.m. at Frisch Auf! Valley Country Club in La Grange.

The evening will feature a silent auction with an array of exclusive items up for bid, an exciting game of Heads and Tails for your chance at a great prize, food, drinks, and much more. Your participation and generous contributions will directly support our mission to provide quality education and brighter futures for the children of Liberia.

Come be a part of this transformative evening and help us bring hope and opportunity to those in need. Together, we can make a lasting impact.
