About the Event
Rebuild the Hood's purpose is to "Revitalize Distressed Communities via investment in Small Businesses and Real Estate." What was initially created as a stand-alone event in 2017, Rebuild the Hood has now morphed into a full-service organization that is dedicated to the economic growth and sustainability of distressed and impoverished neighborhoods in the Chicagoland area.
During the pandemic, we raised and donated over $75,000 in grants through our signature programs, Black Business Boost Grant and the LAWless Fundraiser to Chicago Black-owned businesses. To continue this momentum, we are launching our first annual fundraiser + happy hour, which allows us to continue to support our community.
Join us Tuesday, May 25th, at Persona in partnership with NAPA (Nigerian American Professional Association), MetroBoard Chicago Urban League, and Streets Calling Bike Club. During the fundraiser/happy hour, we will be raffling off land equity of property on the Southside of Chicago that will be developed to rebuild our community. This raffle ticket, will help us fundraise to continue to support our communities in Chicago.
