UCAN's Auxiliary Board is made up of young professionals who volunteer to support UCAN by using their talents and resources. This board plans fundraising events and helps to expand both awareness and support for UCAN in the greater Chicago area.

Auxiliary Board events include:

Try Your Luck - Virtual Trivia Night (March 18, 2021)

Try Your Luck is a night of fun playing virtual trivia with other young professionals. Teams have a blast answering questions and then get to socialize at a virtual afterparty. This event is a great opportunity to have fun and learn about UCAN's essential work.

Future Leaders Night (September 30, 2021)

The Auxiliary Board hosts this annual event to honor the accomplishments of youth and young professionals in Chicago. The event is held in partnership with UCAN's youth leadership programming, which works to provide guidance, education and support for youth who have suffered trauma.

We are elated to return to an in-person event! Though, we are keeping popular activities from last year to provide opportunities for donors to participate virtually as well. The event will include a cocktail reception, hors d'oeuvres and an inspiring awards ceremony. Activities such as raffles, wine pulls, and silent auction will be available both in-person and online. Tickets and sponsorships are now available HERE.
