Associates Board
The Chicago Lights Associates Board is a group of committed young adults across various industries who support the work of Chicago Lights through networking, fundraising, and volunteering.
The purpose of the board is to build a welcoming and supportive network of young professionals who are passionate about giving back and who collaborate to increase resources for Chicago Lights.
“After tutoring with Chicago Lights, I joined the Associates Board because I wanted to find a way to make a bigger impact in my community, but I’ve found much more than that. I’ve gained a community of young professionals who are passionate about furthering Chicago Lights’ mission. Whether it’s putting together a large fundraising event or volunteering together on the weekend, we’re all here with the same mission of making Chicago a better place.”
Taylor Wong, Former President, Chicago Lights Associates Board
