Save-the-Date! April 16th. We are so excited to announce our 5th Annual Fundraiser to support Chicago’s youth by providing fundamental resources, such as our Annual Stay Warm Winter Drive, Annual Back-to-School Drive, supporting other Community organizations that are doing amazing things and directly impact Chicago’s youth.

Today marks our fifth full year serving the city of Chicago through RE-CONNECT Chicago, and our hearts are incredibly full as we reflect on how much our impact has grown.

Over the past 5 years, we were able to support almost 5,000 children across Chicago with school supplies, winter coats, and other essential items they need to feel prepared, supported, and cared for. These moments may feel small on their own, but together they create meaningful change.

Small act. Big impact.

As co-founders of RE-CONNECT Chicago, we are deeply grateful for the generosity of our donors and the strength of our community. We also want to extend a heartfelt thank-you to our incredible partner organizations who help us place these resources directly into the hands of the children and families who need them most.

This work is only possible because of people like you who believe that showing up, even in small ways, can make a lasting difference. Thank you for being part of our mission and for helping us continue to serve Chicago’s youth with compassion, dignity, and care.

We are impacting one kid at a time by providing them with the fundamental resources they need. Every year we do an annual back-to-school drive and an annual stay warm winter drive, but then also throughout the year with your donations. We are able to support specific individual families in need and community partners with our same mission.

Who we are 💙 Thank you to all our supporters, donors, sponsors, volunteers and community partners for helping us impact the underserved youth of Chicago!

🎟️ Got your lottery ticket yet?

Just imagine — $1.8 BILLION could cover back-to-school supplies for nearly every child in the U.S. 📚✏️ Or provide warm winter coats for over 50 million kids. 🧥❄️

So while you're dreaming big tonight... maybe think of the kids too. ❤️
