GO DEEPER
In Chicago, sport has always been woven into the very fabric of the city’s identity. From its legendary high school athletes to its storied professional teams, Chicago’s history is a tapestry of iconic moments, memories and titles that have united the city throughout the past century. However, sport has never been taken seriously as an opportunity to engage kids in Chicago and combat the challenges of isolation, disinvestment, and violence that they face on a day-to-day basis. Over the past 6-years, a new team has formed – Sport for Good Chicago. This coalition, made up of organizations, teams, fans, and leaders of all ages, has come together to redefine what it means to be the greatest sports city in the world. Together, they have created a movement where sport is utilized to its fullest potential to take on the greatest challenges that kids and communities face. Rise with us, join the team, and let’s Win the City.
LAUREUS USA PARTNERSHIP
We have a long history of partnering with Laureus USA on documentary and brand content. Together, we created the award-winning Lost Boyz of Chicago documentary, but when they reached out to us with the opportunity to team up and create Win the City we jumped at the chance.
Laureus USA is a grant-making, nonprofit organization that supports the growth and deepens the impact of programs that use sport for social change. They believe in the power of sport to change the world, as proclaimed by founding patron Nelson Mandela.
By supporting programs that directly serve youth, and driving collaboration between leaders from many sectors, Laureus is able to advance their mission to improve the lives of youth and unite communities through the power of sport.
