You know I LOVE getting dressed up for a good cause and the Chicago Auto Show, First Look For Charity Gala allows me to do both! This is one of Chicago’s largest one day fundraisers. More than $2.5MM is raised in one night! Ticket proceeds benefit 18 non-profits in the area. Besides supporting a good cause, guests get to see the Nation’s largest Auto Show before it opens to the public. I must admit I go for the cars AND to see the fashionably stylish guests at this black tie gala. It’s so much fun checking out the cars while being super fancy. Not to be missed is the fine hors D’oeurves, desserts, wine and drinks served from more than 20 local restaurants. The evening is capped off by not one, but two car giveaways. This year their giving away a 2018 Ford Expedition and a 2018 Ford Mustang.
