Season’s Greetings!
Jim Osborne Scholarship Classic
Last year’s event was a tremendous success, filled with laughter, camaraderie, and unforgettable moments. With your support last year, we were able to give 21 Chicago Public students scholarships on April 24th this year. Last year we celebrated the achievements of our inner-city high-achieving high school seniors, while also enjoying thrilling activities like the ball launchers. This year, we are thrilled to announce the return of “Beat the Pro Charity Hole” and the introduction of Pickleball, the latest trend in sports.
In addition to the exhilarating games and activities, we will also top the day off with our cocktail reception, dinner and offering fantastic raffle prizes. It promises to be a day filled with fun, networking, and purpose, as we come together to support our deserving students and their academic endeavors.
For more than 56 years, the Chicago Business Opportunity Fair helped foster and facilitate connections that led to long-standing partnerships between minority-owned businesses and buying organizations.
Building on the legacy of the organization’s strong history, we are positioning ChicagoMSDC to continue to be transformative in the work that it does through the Chicago Business Opportunity Forums series of events.
