ChiGivesBack, Inc

Last week, I had the privilege of serving as the keynote speaker for 300 AmeriCorps leaders. I shared my experiences with ChiGivesBack, Inc Inc. and discussed the motivations behind my commitment to service. This dedicated group supports 16,000 students throughout our city, and I am excited to witness their positive impact. Thank you Dr. LaCael Palmer-Pratt and City Year Chicago for having me.

This past Sunday, at our Labor of Love event through ChiGivesBack, Inc we had the honor of making the first day of school even more exciting for Chicago’s young scholars. We provided fresh haircuts, stylish hairstyles, medical screenings, and dental checkups to ensure our students start the school year looking and feeling their best. ChiGivesBack has had one of the most impactful months of August! Stats from our Co-Founder, John Boddie: AUGUST NUMBERS - 3,500+ people impacted - 1,100 backpacks given away - 1,000+ volunteer hours worked - 50 teachers honored Sunday's success would not have been possible without our Partners in Community: DTLR, Inc. Inc., Target AARP @cultivating_catering, Ogbonna Bowden @ALDStephanieDColeman, @englewoodbranded, and @madisonstreetbarbers. A special shout-out to @3rdlanellc (the babies LOVED the new kicks 💜) for making this all possible. Here’s to a great school year ahead! #LaborOfLove #ChiGivesBack #BackToSchool #CommunityMatters
