The Youth Leadership Awards is UCAN’s flagship fundraiser, held annually in June. This inspiring event celebrates the academic and personal achievements of UCAN’s outstanding youth. Each year, seven exceptional young people are recognized and receive scholarships for higher education.
We are humbly enthusiastic to celebrate 25 years of stability and growth. Knowing that we have rewarded outstanding youth around Chicago with scholarships is gratifying. We continue to provide them opportunities to excel as great leaders in our community.
UCAN will present its eleventh annual John D. Nichols Award to
Northern Trust, accepted by Michael O’Grady, President and CEO, in recognition of his positive impact on youth and families in Chicago. UCAN is proud to present the Corporate Engagement Award to
PepsiCo.,
a company that has demonstrated exceptional philanthropic commitment to UCAN and the youth in the City of Chicago.
