One For One Chicago students at our annual Wreaths Of Gratitude Workshop, 2025
Your support is a seed of investment that enables young adults ages 16-24 on the West Side of Chicago to access meaningful work experience, consistent mentorship, and the steady support they need to grow into confident leaders.
One For One is rooted in a simple truth: when people show up for each other, it creates a ripple. At our core, we believe that one person, one choice, one opportunity, one job, can change a life. Thank you for your support.
