Party For Life is a non-profit charity dedicated to raising money and awareness for the brave pediatric patients and families at

Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago.

Each year, we host the Giving Thanks Gala as an unforgettable way for Chicago philanthropists to make a real impact.

Note: The Giving Thanks Gala is not your typical, stuffy charity event—we party hard for our cause!

Founded in 2012 by John and Suzy Tsiones, Party For Life operates on a 100% volunteer basis: our board of directors, event vendors, and committee are all unpaid. We keep our overhead extremely minimal to maximize support for the kids. We donate 100% of event proceeds directly to pediatric care and cancer treatment at Lurie Children's Hospital. Always have, and always will. To date, Party For Life has raised and donated over $600,000 to ensure families receive

world-class care.

We are deeply grateful for your kindness and generosity in helping us stand by these extraordinary children and their families.

Thank you for partying with us.

BECAUSE

OF YOU,

WE HAVE DONATED OVER
