Meet Zach, one of the new Scholars joining Hope Ignites Chicago this year!

A new school year brings new routines, opportunities, friendships, and goals.

Along the way, our Scholars have a place to call home and people in their corner, with support that reaches well beyond the classroom.

Can you help make that possible for this year’s Scholars? Make a gift through the link in our bio. 🧡

On Monday, we celebrated our 43rd Annual Drive Fore Hope Golf Outing at the beautiful North Shore Country Club.

While the weather definitely did not play by the rules, the energy that our guests brought with them was enough to brighten even the stormiest day!

A huge thank you to our Alumna Debra for her inspirational speech and for sharing her journey with our guests - it was the perfect reminder "why" we do what we do. 💙

Thank you also to senior Scholar Anthony, for leading our moment of gratitude and to the other Scholars in our program for introducing themselves!

To our donors, sponsors, supporters, partners, thank you for your contribution and for giving so generously - none of this is possible without you - we are truly grateful.

It's not too late to support our fundraising efforts. Visit: https://chicago.hopeignites.gives/DriveForeHope to make a donation.
