We are thrilled to announce that our Annual Back-to-School & Health and Wellness Fair will be taking place on Friday, August 8, 2025, starting at 10:00 a.m. at 9108 S. Brandon Avenue, Chicago, IL. This much-anticipated community event is a cornerstone of our summer programming, bringing together families, organizations, and supporters to celebrate, prepare, and connect before the new school year begins.
This year’s event will feature a variety of engaging activities and resources, including:
🎒 Backpacks and school supplies for local youth
🩺 Health screenings and wellness resources to promote family well-being
🎶 Music and free food for all attendees to enjoy
🌟 Special performance by the Jesse White Tumblers, adding energy and excitement for the whole family!
We are still welcoming community vendors and partners who would like to participate by sharing information, resources, or services. If your organization is interested in joining us as a vendor, please reach out to Program Manager Tiarra Owens at tia...@claretianassociates.org as soon as possible.
This is a great opportunity to connect with residents and make a positive impact on youth and families in the South Chicago community. We encourage you to share this announcement within your networks and help us spread the word far and wide.
We look forward to another amazing event—and we hope to see you there!
