Friends and Family! I’m raising funds to support Family Matters and its summer programs through their 10×10 Challenge. Will you help me reach my $100 goal by donating $10? Family Matters provides a safe space for Chicago youth to be engaged and active throughout the summer. You can learn more about the program on their website here: www.familymatterschicago.org/campaigns/summer.
