Happy Birthday, Block Club!
Join us for a night of fun as Block Club Chicago celebrates our five-year anniversary. In honor of this incredible milestone, we’ll be celebrating community leaders, individuals and businesses that have made an impact in their neighborhoods.
We want you by our side to celebrate how far we’ve come in five years — from a team of five reporters and three editors to 28 full-time journalists — and all of the exciting work we have ahead. Throughout the event, we’ll feature special guests and powerful stories that Chicagoans have come to know, love and care about. Enjoy delicious food and drinks featuring a Block Club Chicago signature cocktail. Participate in our silent auction with donations from your favorite sports teams and local businesses across Chicago. Take a picture with your friends in our photo booth and dance the night away to the tunes from the event DJ.
And of course, help support the future of Block Club Chicago. We’ve set an ambitious goal to raise $50,000 to help us continue telling stories that matter the most to YOU.
