HALL OF FAMER ISIAH THOMAS TO ATTEND 33RD ANNUAL J.P. MORGAN CHASE CORPORATE CHALLENGE TO BENEFIT GET IN CHICAGO
Isiah Thomas will attend the 33rd annual J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge — scheduled for Thursday, May 22 at Grant Park — which will serve as a benefit and awareness builder for Get In Chicago. Thomas will be announcing the first place winners of the race and will participate as a guest announcer throughout the challenge.

A record crowd of 25,478 runners and walkers took part in the 2013 Corporate Challenge in Grant Park. A similar crowd is expected this May, providing the opportunity for Get In Chicago to inspire, invest and involve the participants in its mission.
J.P. Morgan, on behalf of Corporate Challenge participants, will make a donation to Get In Chicago to provide more mentoring, cognitive/behavioral therapy and parent leadership services this year to more at-risk youth and their families in Chicago.

Launched in March 2013, Get In Chicago is addressing the problem of youth violence by supporting prevention and intervention efforts across high-violence community areas in Chicago and collaborating with researchers to gather data and evaluate which programs are working, for whom and why.

Get In Chicago is championed by Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Isiah Thomas, Chairman & CEO, Isiah International, LLC and Founder, Mary’s Court, James Reynolds Jr., CEO of Loop Capital Holdings LLC, Tom Wilson, CEO of Allstate Corporation, and other business leaders. It is a public-private partnership whose mission is to identify, fund and rigorously evaluate evidence-based programs that lead to a sustainable reduction in violence for individuals and communities most affected by violence and poverty.
