Community Sponsorships

Giving Back Builds Better Communities

At the University of Chicago Medical Center, we want to be more than the organization that provides quality healthcare. We have a responsibility, and a deeper commitment, to give back in support of the communities where we live and do business. We believe in sharing our resources to substantively contribute to building better communities.

As a part of our mission, each year we invest in the work of many charitable organizations in the community. We look for innovative programs that address issues critical to those in need and award financial support to those we believe can help make a real difference.

Our community sponsorships include:
Bud Billiken Parade

About the Sponsorship Process

Written proposals should include the following:
Description and history of the event or activity to be sponsored

Sponsorship levels and costs associated with sponsorship
Deadline for sponsorship decision

Proposals are reviewed on a regular basis. The requesting organization should hear from the Medical Center within two to six weeks of receipt of the proposal. If there is a need for additional information, the Medical Center will contact the organization directly.
