Chicago-based nonprofit Kids Above All will host their annual fundraiser as a virtual event on Wednesday, November 18, at 6:45 p.m. The Kids Above All Virtual Gala: A Night of Impact & Gratitude is an opportunity for the community to stand up for the safety, health and well-being of the 2,448 kids and families in their programs. Proceeds from the event will benefit the children and their families in Kids Above All’s early learning program, foster care and adoption services, housing programs for teens and formerly homeless young adults, and counseling services, providing:
• Rental assistance for children living in poverty whose parents have lost their jobs due to COVID-19 to allow families to stay in their homes.
• Utility assistance to ensure families and youth are able to stay warm and have electricity.
• Access to technology for children so they can e-learn, attend virtual counseling sessions and connect with family members.
The event will include opportunities to make a direct impact on kids and families in and around Chicago, as well as a silent auction and raffle. For sponsorship information and to register for this online event visit www.kidsaboveall.org/gala.
