Big Day. Better Schools. Brighter Futures. The Chicago Cares Serve-a-thon is both the largest day of community service in Chicago and the largest fundraiser for Chicago Cares. Join thousands of volunteers from companies, churches, alumni groups, fraternities, block clubs, neighborhoods and families to paint a brighter future for Chicago children.
We'll help students succeed as we beautify Chicago school classrooms, libraries and playgrounds! In just one day, Serve-a-thon volunteers transform schools into wonderful, vibrant places to learn and grow. The Serve-a-thon is also the largest fundraiser for Chicago Cares, and money raised through this event makes it possible for us to create, manage and lead 215 volunteer projects every month.
Serve-a-thon volunteers:
- add fresh coats of paint to classrooms, transforming bland spaces into vibrant ones.
- organize libraries to provide environments conducive to learning.
- transform indoor and outdoor spaces with bright, colorful murals.
- paint bright, colorful line games on playgrounds to encourage activity.
- plant flowers and create landscapes to beautify the schools.
Registration fee: $30
