What an incredible night of connection and community! 🌟

Last night, MetroBoard teamed up once again with the @baumhartcenter for Social Enterprise & Responsibility at @loyolachicago for the 5th edition of "Reboot Your Network for a Better World." 💼🌎

We came together not just to exchange business cards, but to build real, lasting relationships with Chicago leaders who are actively driving social and environmental change.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined the room, including our amazing MetroBoard leadership team members—Fundraising Chair Jessica, Membership/Community Service Chair Olivia, and PR Chair Alexx—and a special shoutout to our guest, Symone! (who saw this event via our Instagram)

The energy was unmatched, and the conversations were inspiring. Let’s keep this momentum going and continue working together to build a better world. 🚀

Another MLK Day,
Another Chance to Serve
People.

Whether at a school cleanup, a municipal breakfast, or just the people in our lives.

This MLK Weekend, I wonder (just as Speaker Welch & Lt. Gov Stratton asks):

"What Will You Do?"

✅ The spirit was HIGH during our 9:30 am Worship Service! 🙌

✅ We had a great Sunday School class, led by one of our young adults, Minister Lauren Davis ( @lolojayyyy ) 🙏

✅ Then we topped it off with a delicious fellowship brunch, hosted by @jennifersedibles (A family-style restaurant, serving American & Jamaican soul food with a twist! Located in Evanston's 5th Ward) 😍
