On the second Saturday of every June, thousands of Chicago Cares volunteers create positive and inspiring learning environments for Chicago's children at the annual Chicago Cares Serve-a-thon - the city's largest day of service. 

At schools throughout the city, volunteers paint bright murals, organize libraries, brighten classrooms and hallways, create line games on playgrounds to encourage play and activity, and beautify school grounds with landscaping and planter benches. Children and community members are proud of their schools and volunteers see an immediate change in their community. 

As a corporate partner for the Serve-a-thon, your employees experience first-hand the power of teamwork and volunteerism. Volunteering as a corporate team raises employee morale, improves retention and demonstrates your company's commitment to improving Chicago.  

The event also reaches hundreds of thousands of Chicagoans in the weeks before and after the event. The distribution of registration brochures, the placement of event ads, the extensive media coverage, and the widespread community involvement all add up to a big impact for our sponsors. Sponsorship levels range from $5,000 to $100,000.
