SUMMARY:Spring Luncheon Fundraiser
DESCRIPTION:Join Chicago Appleseed’s Spring Luncheon on June 16!\nWe invite you to join our spring luncheon at the Ivy Room as we uplift leaders in our community and celebrate our collective efforts for justice. Chicago Appleseed is excited to gather with you and raise funds to support our work for court transparency\, economic accessibility\, decarceration\, and community autonomy. \nAt the event\, we are proud to honor Robert Held\, a lawyer and community activist whose viral videos and national media interviews have focused on protecting the free speech rights of protesters speaking out against the policies and tactics of those carrying out national immigration policies. Robert’s videos have garnered millions of views as he has gained a national following. \nWe will also share about Chicago Appleseed’s efforts to build the next generation of justice-oriented lawyers through our Future Justice Lawyers of Chicago (FJLOC) program. Hannah Callentine\, Appleseed FJLOC Fellow and President of the Northwestern University Black Pre-Law Students Association\, will be discussing the FJLOC and its powerful skill-building\, mentoring\, and community development. We are thrilled to have 75 pre-law undergraduate and high school students involved in FJLOC\, along with a robust Alumni Association. \nGet your tickets here and sponsor the event here.  \nSee you there\, \nRachel Lyons \nExecutive Director

SUMMARY:2026 Fall Fundraiser
DESCRIPTION:On November 12\, we invite you to join our fall fundraiser and kick off our 30th Anniversary of fighting for fair courts! Chicago Appleseed continues to make a powerful impact on the lives of people who show up to court every day – people who are just trying to stay housed\, keep their families together\, or resolve disputes. Your donation goes directly to supporting our work to ensure access to justice for all community members. \nWe know both the criminal and civil courts are unjust. One case can have life-altering consequences. The system is confusing\, expensive\, and stacked against everyday people. We know public safety comes from community investment and support\, not from threat of punishment. \nAt the event\, you will hear from a panel of leaders telling stories about the impact of Chicago Appleseed’s work and how we will continue to reshape the realities of courtrooms across Cook County and beyond. We are also thrilled to be launching the Educate & Motivate program to support the immigrant community in this critical time. Be a part of this special evening and invest in court transparency\, access to justice\, and mentorship for the next generation of advocacy-oriented lawyers. \nChicago Appleseed applied to become a part of the Appleseed Network in October 1996. Looking back\, we have accomplished incredible milestones with your support. Join us now in 2026 and sustain this work for the next 30 years! \nThursday\, November 12\, 2026 \nGoldberg Kohn\, 55 E. Monroe St\, Chicago\, IL \n5:00pm – Reception \n5:45pm – Program \n7:00pm – End Time \nPurchase your tickets here. \nSponsor the event here. \n  \nPlease contact Malcolm Rich with any questions (malcolmrich@chicagoappleseed.org).
