metropolis 2010

The Metro Board is proud to announce that, thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and guests, metropolis 2010 raised $90,000 in net proceeds to support Metropolitan’s child abuse prevention programs and the Legal Aid Bureau!

 

On June 4, more than 350 young professionals gathered at metropolis for a night of live music by Dr.Bombay, an Italian buffet, cocktails, a silent auction and raffles at Galleria Marchetti, one of Chicago’s hottest venues.

All proceeds from metropolis are directed to help children and families in Chicago through Metropolitan’s child abuse prevention programs, which provide teens and children with critical education, counseling and safety planning resources to build healthy futures.

 

The funds also benefited Metropolitan’s Legal Aid Bureau, which provides legal representation to more than 7,500 clients each year on issues such as domestic violence and family law.
