DESCRIPTION
About this Event

This December, Chicago United Solidarity Project (CUSP), The Evolved Network (TEN), and Women Unite! (WU!) are joining forces to co-host Unite! for a Cause: A Year-End Fundraiser, a celebration of all we’ve accomplished in 2024 and all we’ll continue to do in the year ahead.



Details

We’ll be at Hairpin Arts Center in Logan Square with 250 of our closest friends, gathering for an inspiring evening of community, celebration, and collective action. All dollars raised will support the three co-hosts and the impact we’re having across Chicago.

Street parking is available, but extremely limited. Please plan on utilizing rideshare or public transit. Hairpin Arts Center is conveniently located near the Diversey, Milwaukee, and Kimball bus stops as well as the Logan Square Blue Line (closest to the Spaulding & Milwaukee exit).

Hairpin Arts Center has a wheelchair accessible entrance and restroom.

This event is 21+.

Dress code is whatever you want!



What to Expect

There’s so much to mourn. There’s so much to do. But there’s also so much to celebrate and enjoy, and that’s what we plan on doing!

Guests can expect:

  • Plenty of hors d'oeuvres and a selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages!
  • An activation station that provides hands-on opportunities to support incredible local causes!
  • Music and dancing!
  • Raffle prizes!
  • And, of course, the chance to connect and build relationships!



Can't make it?

No problem. There are multiple ways to support the event, even if you can't join in person.

  • Make a donation
  • Purchase a ticket for a community member (select the 'Community Member' option on the ticketing page)
  • Sponsor our event


Sliding-Scale & Community Member Tickets

Our event tickets are sliding-scale, which allows folks to pay based on their available resources. The below graphic provides some recommendations to help figure out what rate makes sense for you. Through this approach we hope to make our event more accessible and also push back against the capitalist underpinnings of fundraising and philanthropy. 

Additionally, we are offering a ticket tier labeled "Community Member." These tickets are for those who work in and are part of the global majority and frontline communities. They are also meant for those who may not be able to purchase tickets at any of the levels offered. If you can afford to purchase a ticket for a community member, please do so!
