Each year, the exceptional Chicago Area Schweitzer Fellows design and implement year-long projects to address a variety of urgent health needs facing Chicago’s underserved communities. As our 2024-2025 Fellows work with their community sites to implement their projects, many anticipate expenses not funded by another source. Fellows Fest is a crowdsourced fundraiser to support these projects.
While additional information on how to support our Fellows’ projects will posted in the coming weeks, early registration for the in-person event is strongly encouraged. Join us for an evening of food, drinks, and the opportunity to support the Schweitzer Fellows! Admission is free of charge, but space is limited. Please RSVP by Wednesday, July 31, 2024.
