2025 Raising Hope gala

September 25, 2025 – The Four Seasons Hotel – Chicago, IL

On Thursday, September 25th, the 100 Club of Illinois will host the annual Raising Hope Gala at the Four Seasons Hotel in Chicago. Join us for an evening of honoring our 100 Club families, first responders, and the community of supporters who carry our mission throughout the state of Illinois.

Funds contributed for the Raising Hope Gala allow the 100 Club of Illinois to provide resources, several forms of financial support, access to training, and moral support to both the families of first responders killed in the line of duty and active duty first responders throughout the state of Illinois.

Cocktail hour begins at 6pm followed by our program and dinner at 7pm.

Cocktail dress attire required.

Sponsorship opportunities are available and listed below.
