One for the Kids was established in 1993 by a group of concerned individuals who wanted to make a difference. Since that time we have raised over $2,000,000 for our partner charities, Advocate Children’s Heart Institute and Special Olympics Chicago. In addition to our partner charities, we choose a family in need to be the main beneficiary of our Curve Ball Event. Our motto has always been “a great time for a great cause” and if you’ve ever attended our events, you will see just that. Your support has had an incredible impact on thousands of families in the Chicagoland area with children in need.
Our annual Golf Outing is hosted every August and supports our partner charities, Advocate Children’s Heart Institute and Special Olympics Chicago.
Our annual “Curve Ball” is thrown once a year to benefit our selected host family. We plan a grand evening of good food and great entertainment for a worthy cause.
One for the Kids also accepts direct donations throughout the year. Donate now.
In addition to our traditional benefactors, local families, that have a specific child based need, are nominated to our organization each year. Our cocktail event’s main purpose is to help support one of those families. This allows us to focus our efforts to a specific family, child, and need.
