+01: 2004 Annual Event, An Evening for Equality, Raises Much-Needed Funds.
On December 2nd, Equip for Equality realized its second most successful fundraiser in the organization's 19-year history in a memorable celebration gathering of more than 200 guests and participants at the Renaissance Chicago Hotel. Hosted by JB Pritzker Family Foundation, the event successfully brought together members of the disability community and some of the state's most prominent political figures to support one common mission…the full inclusion and participation of people with disabilities in society. Find out more by viewing our 2004 Annual Event Recap & Slideshow.
