Dear Friend of Chicago State University:
On behalf of Chicago State University (‘CSU”) and the Chicago State University Foundation, I am pleased to invite you to a very special event. The 13th Annual Friends of CSU Awards Gala will be held on Thursday, September 20, 2007, in the new Emil Jones, Jr. and Patricia A. Jones Convocation Center on our picturesque campus.
We are honoring LaSalle Bank, and Larry D. Richman, President and CEO. The event will feature a Grammy Award-winning musical guest, an extensive selection of gourmet hors d’oeuvres and entrees, along with a silent auction. More than 600 guests from Chicagoland’s business and professional community are expected to attend the gala at which we will launch our new comprehensive campaign, titled BoldSteps.
Funds raised at the Gala provide scholarships that are critical for recruiting high-ability students and for keeping them in school. The event also supports technology and facility enhancements and campus and community enrichment. You can make it an even more successful event by:
- becoming a corporate or individual sponsor
