Presented by BMO Harris Bank, the Chicago Bulls hosted the 29th Annual “An Evening with the Chicago Bulls” Charity Gala on Saturday, October 14. The beautiful Havana Nights-themed evening, hosted by Emmy Award winning personality Val Warner of ABC’s “Windy City LIVE,” included a cocktail reception followed by dinner, a silent auction, and entertainment as the 2017-2018 Bulls players, Bulls coaches, ambassadors, and broadcasters all attended.
All proceeds from An Evening with the Chicago Bulls will support the Chicago Bulls Charities. Under the leadership of the charity’s President Nancy Reinsdorf and Vice President Leslie Forman, Chicago Bulls Charities provides annual financial support to Chicagoland nonprofit organizations that share the Bulls’ commitment to youth education, youth health and wellness, violence prevention, and military and first responder support. Chicago Bulls Charities and the entire Bulls basketball family work to address community concerns and find ways for the organization to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need.
Last season,the CBC and the Chicago Bulls Community Relations department organized nearly 200 community events and more than 230 appearance from our players, impacting the lives of more than 131, 000 Chicagoans.
