Back-to-School: Community Kick-Off

This year marks iMentor Chicago’s 10th anniversary — a decade of building powerful relationships and transforming the future of Chicago youth through mentorship. What began as a bold idea has grown into a movement, thanks to the dedication of mentors like you.

Location: 20 N Wacker Dr., Floor 12 (Above the Lyric Opera House)

Date: September 24, 2025

Time: 9:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m.

To celebrate, we’re bringing our community together for a day of connection and reflection. Join us to co-work, share stories, enjoy happy hour, grab a professional headshot, and hear from our Executive Director, Nina, on the State of iMentor Chicago. Drinks, light refreshments, and plenty of inspiration will be waiting for you. Suggested donations are welcome for those who’d like to contribute, but this celebration is open to all.
