On Monday, May 4, 2026, the Daisie Foundation proudly hosted its annual Chicago Mother’s Day Makeover Experience in partnership with the Chicago Housing Authority at The Gwen Hotel.

The Mother’s Day Makeover Experience is a community outreach initiative created to celebrate and uplift mothers through a day centered on encouragement, self-care, beauty services, and connection. Designed to remind women how valued and appreciated they are, the experience brought together community leaders, volunteers, beauty professionals, sponsors, and partners to create a memorable day for participating moms from communities across Chicago.

Throughout the event, mothers received professional hair styling, makeup services, gifts, lunch, and inspirational conversations in a warm and welcoming environment. From the moment guests arrived, the atmosphere reflected kindness, gratitude, and community as volunteers and supporters worked together to create a meaningful experience focused on honoring the strength and impact of mothers.

The Daisie Foundation extends deepest gratitude to presenting host and partner The Gwen Hotel for helping bring this year’s Chicago Mother’s Day Makeover Experience to life. The Foundation is also grateful for the generosity and support of Old National Bank , Meijer , MolinaCares, Shiraleah, Penske, Banana Republic Factory Store, UI Health, TAD, Tricoci University of Beauty Culture, Mane Space, Aria Comprehensive Dermatology, Pin Me Up, and Daisie Project.
