Ivanka Trump, the eldest daughter of republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, is headlining a campaign fundraising event in Peoria next week.

An invitation obtained by Peoria Public Radio says the 34-year-old businesswoman will meet constituents during a luncheon Wed. in an undisclosed location. The invite says the location will be released to those who register for the minimum $500 per person luncheon.

The invitation lists various contribution levels and incentives. A $250,000 contribution level called the “Chairman's Circle Membership” includes lunch and a picture.

Ivanka is thought to be one of Donald Trump's most trusted advisors, and a crucial link to female and millennial voters.

Congressmen Darin LaHood and John Shimkus are on the host committee, along with Illinois Republican Party Chairman Tim Schneider, as well as Businessman Ron Gidwitz.

The luncheon is scheduled for Wed., Sept. 28th at 1:30pm, with photo opportunities at 12:30pm.

Ivanka Trump is also scheduled to meet supporters at a "Coffee and Conversation" stop in Quincy that morning. The cost per person for that event is $100.
