"If we can help in any way, every little bit helps."
Welcome
For over 45 years, The Great Escape has helped families create places to relax and connect at home. Greater Together extends that mission by creating those same welcoming spaces for organizations serving people throughout the Midwest.
Community Starts with Partnership
Greater Together is committed to enhancing community well-being in partnership with social service organizations across the Midwest. Since our inception in 2020, we have collaborated with local foundations to provide essential leisure products and create inviting spaces. Our goal is to foster environments where individuals can connect, recharge, and create lasting memories.

Real Connection,
Meaningful Solutions
Relationships
The Great Escape has a legacy of 50+ years building relationships with families throughout the Midwest.
Partnership
Greater Together extends those relationships beyond retail and into the communities those families call home.
Listening
Every donation begins with a conversation where we ask, "What would best serve your community?" The answer determines the project.
Community
Every project creates another gathering place to strengthen relationships, reduce stress, create memories, and provide opportunities to reconnect during life's challenging moments.
