On April 29, 2021, we celebrated our Heroes.

​This year we took our Spring Awards Celebration fundraising event virtual—and honored our HEROES AT WORK. Hosts Erin Clifford of Clifford Law Offices and Brian Monico of Hale & Monico guided us through an entertaining evening, getting to know Lawyers Lend-a-Hand to Youth and the important work we are doing.

We honored Illinois Secretary of State, Jesse White with the prestigious Abraham Lincoln Marovitz Philanthropic Award, and presented the inaugural My Hero Award to Daniel A. Cotter, and the Thomas Demetrio Award of Excellence to Access Living.

Thanks to our generous donors and bidders, we raised nearly $85,000 dollars during the event and our silent auction.
