Autism Speaks CHIP IN Casino Night
Gala/Party for Autism SpeaksNov 16, 2019 from 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM
On Saturday, November 16, 2019 we will host our fourth annual Autism Speaks CHIP IN, Casino Night, an evening of dinner and gaming at Revel Fulton Market in Chicago. The room will be packed for this glamorous, casino themed celebration, which includes dinner, drinks, gaming and an exciting silent auction. Last year we welcomed about 400 guests who all enjoyed gaming, mingling and celebrating while raising funds for Autism Speaks.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurological disorder that affects 1 in every 59 children. It is characterized, in varying degrees, by difficulties in social interaction, verbal and nonverbal communication, and repetitive behaviors. Last year Chip in raised over $400,000.00, which is used to fund innovative scientific research, spread awareness, and provide resources and advocacy to families affected by autism in the Chicagoland area.
We are looking forward to hosting a silent auction that offers a variety of attractive items which will promote local businesses, restaurants, hotels and retail shops, as well as assist us in reaching our fundraising goals. In an effort to make this portion of the event as distinctive as possible, we are looking for donations that would be attractive to our guests. Your donation gives us the opportunity to offer valuable items as well as provide unique incentives as we raise funds for such an important cause. Our most popular items are:
- Sports tickets and Memorabilia (Cubs, White Sox, Blackhawks, Bears, Bulls, Big Ten)
- Concert and Theater tickets
- Vacation experiences (homes, timeshares, golf outings, hotel vouchers, airline miles and tickets)
- Unique opportunities (show tapings, walk-on parts, dining/chef experiences, etc.)
Promotion of the event is scheduled to begin soon and your commitment can be announced alongside through our digital and online marketing. To make your commitment in support of this one-of-a-kind event, please complete and return the enclosed form. Your support is so appreciated.
