International Volunteer Network of Chicago Kickoff Event

Please join us for the kickoff event of the International Volunteer Network of Chicago (www.IVNC.org). The focus of IVNC is to involve and inform business professionals and Chicago’s diplomatic corps on community service and volunteerism opportunities by hosting unique networking events that feature select charitable organizations.

On Wednesday, February 3rd from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. we will host our kickoff event at the Chicago Cultural Center’s Preston Bradley Hall (78 E. Washington Street). At this event we will highlight volunteer opportunities as they relate to literacy, both in Chicago and abroad. IVNC will spotlight Open Books and UNICEF. For more information on these organizations’ literacy projects, please visit (www.ivnc.org/featurednonprofits.php).

Tickets for the kickoff event are now available by Clicking Here. The cost to attend is $35.00 in advance and $45.00 at the door and will cover your entrance to the event as well as food and drink provided by Cork Catering.

Partnering with us on this event are the Chicago Consular Corps, the Chicago International Trade Commissioners Association, Chicago Chapter of the Fulbright Association, Chris John Photography and Just For Fun Entertainment & Events. To learn more about our partners, please visit (http://ivnc.org/partners.php).

In keeping with our focus on literacy, we also ask you to bring any new or used books as IVNC will host a Book Exchange. At the book exchange you can take home books that others have brought and the books that are left over will be donated to local literacy organizations.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions or to discuss how you can get involved. We look forward to seeing you on February 3rd!

Regards,
Don Garner Ed Graziano
