Fight For Chicago

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Fight for Chicago! We're thankful for you and all the ways you've supported us this year.

Motivation is the 4th core value of our team of CHAMPS. Motivation is the "why" behind what we do. Comfort and convenience is motivating, but doesn't bring out the results we want. Motivation is the beginning of the change we long to see. What are you motivated by? #Motivation

Say hi to our co-founder & board president Gaston Curk! Gaston is the co-founder & CEO of OSM Worldwide, a domestic & international parcel consolidation company - the fastest in the industry. We're so thankful to Gaston for all he gives to benefit youth in Chicago through F4C.

At F4C we train our athletes to work hard, not only to win the fight in the ring, but to also win the fight in life. What about you? What have you learned from hard work? #boxing #chicago #youth #usaboxing #hardwork #dreambig #win #training #dedication #dicipline

Thank you to everyone who tuned in to our Punchlines event. We exceeded our goal and raised over $9,000! This means we get to launch a new Team of CHAMPS fully funded in Fall 2020! We’re considering this a BIG WIN and we couldn't have done it without you. fightforchicago.org

Congrats to our board member Rob Lang!

We've raised $450 in support of Chicago Youth. Help us get to $6,000 and launch our next team of CHAMPS - youth boxers who will gain access to coaching, mentorship, and ongoing community support. fightforchicago.org/events

Join us this Thursday for a LIVE online comedy event to raise funds to give Chicago Youth access to boxing, mentorship, and community support! fightforchicago.org/events/?fbclid…

Thanks to all the CHAMPS and parents who came to our Friday night meet-up at the gym. We love the dedication and commitment shown by these student-athletes to get stronger, work hard at academics and volunteer in their communities.
