Join us for our 4th annual Build the Block Party cocktail benefit
Unlike an average cocktail benefit, the Build the Block Party will celebrate some of the many assets of our focus neighborhoods:
- Savor culinary delights from small businesses in Greater Grand Crossing, West Pullman, and Austin
- Enjoy specialty cocktails inspired by Chicago's history
- Groove to live entertainment from local artists
- Explore fun, hands-on experiences to learn about the impact of all our programs
- Bid in our raffle including surprise wine bottles and prizes from local businesses
Purchase your tickets now to reserve your space.
