Chicago! My Kind of Town

Freeborn & Peters LLP is a proud sponsor of Interfaith House's 2008 fundraising event, "Chicago! My Kind of Town" on Wednesday, June 18 from 6:30 - 9:30 p.m.  Firm Partner Helen N. Baker is co-chair of the event and sits on the board of Interfaith House as Vice-President.

Guests will enjoy a delectable menu of food and drink, and entertainment reminiscent of the times in which Frank Sinatra first recorded the song by the same name.  This festive event will feature a raffle, silent and live auctions, and awards to deserving Chicagoans and supporters.  In addition, guests will enjoy access to the Chicago History Museum and selected exhibits.

Interfaith House, a pro-bono client of the Firm, continues to make history since opening in 1994 as the only agency in Illinois that provides respite care for homeless individuals.  More than 6,000 men and women have been provided with compassionate, cost-effective care ($92 per day compared to $1,110 per day in a hospital) to help them restore their health and rebuild their lives.  In 2005, the American College of Physicians recognized Interfaith House for its Distinguished Contribution in the Health Field.  Interfaith House is proud to provide a solution to a national problem at the community level.  For more information, visit www.interfaithhouse.org.
