Every major city has its notable institutions. The University of Chicago, incredible public art from Picasso and Calder, and a remarkable skyline anchored by the are a few that are only found in Chicago. The Checkeditout Chicago Porsche Gathering is also something that only takes place in Chicago. We harbor a love for Chicago and strive to showcase our city in its best form, so of course our annual charity beneficiary must be a local organization benefitting a Chicago community. For 2022, @Checkeditout has named Crushers Club as our charitable partner. Located in the Englewood neighborhood, the Club provides WorkForce employment and job training combined with boxing, music, peer mentoring, and self-development programs to offer the young men who hail from a tough area the strongest alternative to gang life. Best said by Juvenile Probation Officer Dominique Scalzetti, “Crushers Club is a beacon of hope. This program saves lives on a daily basis”. Checkeditout first heard of @englewoodcrushers when it was named as the annual charity recipient in 2021 for the @pca_chicago We were so impressed after meeting founder Sally Hazelgrove and seeing what she has put in place for these young men, it was inevitable that it would be our 2022 charity. Crushers meets our criteria of having an intense local focus and high impact with the most efficient use of every donated dollar. We at Checkeditout Chicago are proud to ask for your help in supporting this most-deserving, Crushers Club organization. -Andy Bizub @mpcars Our silent auction to benefit Crushers goes live on August 22nd.
