Thank you for an incredible evening!

The 27th UCAN Leadership Awards

Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU!

In the most humbling way, the 27th Annual UCAN Leadership Awards was another sparkling success! We are incredibly grateful to everyone who joined us at the Radisson Blu Aqua Hotel and helped make our annual fundraiser an unforgettable evening.
 
UCAN was honored to present seven deserving youth with academic scholarships and present our first annual Thomas Vanden Berk Legacy Service Award to Richard Fleming. The night's highlights also include a presentation of our Corporate Engagement Award to Nike, Inc. and presenting our John D. Nichols Impact Award to the Honorable JB Pritzker, governor of Illinois, who was unable to join us but shared his appreciation and support through a moving video.
 
The UCAN Leadership Awards celebrates the heart of UCAN: the youth we proudly serve, our community-facing programs, and the generous supporters who make all of our work possible.
 
On behalf of UCAN's Governing Board, our staff, and those we serve: thank you all for standing with us and fueling our mission. It is because of you that we lead with transformational interventions so families can be safe and prosper.
 
UCAN is RELENTLESS!
