WHY WE ARE HERE
Come Through is part of The Evolved Network's campaign to raise $40,000 to sustain our programming across Chicago Public Schools.
Our school partners — the principals, teachers, and families who have welcomed The Evolved Network into their communities — are navigating real budget pressure. Many can no longer fully fund the programming we provide. Rather than stepping away, The Evolved Network has continued to show up, absorbing those gaps so that students can keep having these experiences.
Your $100 ticket is a direct contribution to that commitment. And throughout the evening, there will be opportunities to give more if you feel moved to do so.
Every dollar raised goes toward the people, fresh ingredients, garden supplies, and materials that allow The Evolved Network to remain present in school communities each week — in kitchens, in gardens, and in the lives of the young people who deserve to be there.
