Come join me and 250 young professionals in Chicago at the sixth annual St. Jude Day at the Derby Party that's happening this Saturday! It will feature an afternoon of networking, cocktails, a raffle, and horse racing with a twist of Cinco de Mayo! Tickets include drinks, notably classic mint juleps, appetizers, contest for the most fabulous Derby hats and outfits, Derby-themed game, prizes and a raffle. Proceeds from the Day at the Derby event will benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in fighting childhood cancer and ensuring that families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food. 

Over the past 16 years, the St. Jude Young Professionals Committee of Chicago has raised more than $1,000,000 to support St. Jude patients and their families. St. Jude Young Professionals of Chicago unites with Chicago’s leaders of tomorrow to help advance cures for pediatric cancer while also providing young professionals with the tools to evaluate their career goals, improve their professional image and create the building blocks of a lifelong and diverse professional network.

Come join me in supporting this great cause so very near and dear to my heart and help me celebrate my favorite 5th day of the year! To purchase tickets and learn more about St. Jude Young Professionals, visit their website here.
