A Call to Men

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us at our 2024 Men’s Breakfast in Chicago! Over 300 leaders, advocates, and change-makers came together to celebrate Healthy Manhood and take bold steps (literally) toward creating healthier, more authentic communities. We are grateful for the men who stood in solidarity with us, the volunteers who made everything easy for our guests, the speakers for sharing their stories and being transparent about their experiences with #domesticviolence, and the staff at Soldier Field for their incredible hospitality. Special thanks to our sponsor, The Allstate Foundation, and Sharisse Kimbro, for believing in our mission and helping us continue this important work. #HealthyManhood #ACallToMen #ChicagoMensBreakfast2024
