Event Description:

The Breath of Life Gala is the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s signature corporate event held in all major markets across the country. This year the Greater Illinois Chapter is proud to honor three recipients of the Breath of Life Award in recognition of the many ways they have enriched the community by their acts of giving—and that such enlightened leadership reflect a “breath of life” to be celebrated and emulated. More than 400 guests and volunteers will enjoy cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, live music, a seated dinner, auctions and a raffle.

What we'll be doing:

One Brick volunteers will be greeters and check-in guests, and provide them with table assignment, bid number, and program book. We'll also help with spotting during the live auction, collecting names and bid numbers from winning bidders.

What you should know:

All volunteers must wear cocktail attire. No jeans, gym shoes, hats, or other casual wear.

Where to Meet:

We'll meet in the Drake Room for quick instructions, then get right to our assignment!
