The Safe Summer giving campaign will fund our entire summer program for Pitch In students. Our 5-week summer program will be packed with art, technology, entrepreneurship, creativity, and curiosity. Each Pitch In site will host summer programming, led by our Pitch In program managers & staff. Pitch In students will enjoy engaging activities, daily meals, and weekly field trips around Chicago.
Support the Safe Summer Campaign
Thank you for your generous support. We would not be able to provide these unique summer opportunities to our Pitch In students, in Humboldt Park & North Lawndale, without your help. No donation is too small – each and every dollar counts.
Our Safe Summer giving campaign will run from 5/16-6/30/22!
2022 Pitch In Summer Program: The Power of Art
Art has the power to make tangible change in our communities. Through public art, we can celebrate our identities, raise awareness for social issues, and build community connections. During the 5 week program, students will engage in project-based learning. They will design, create, and build a product that is meant to solve a problem that they observe in their own lives. The goal is for students to create a business motto, a “pitch,” explore what it means to create the solution to a problem, be a business owner, and market your product or service. In addition to building out their own projects, students will have the opportunity to learn from Chicago entrepreneurs of color
