Clearbrook Volunteers Lend a Helping Hand for Jelly Belly Days!

On Friday, May 12, and Saturday, May 13, over 700 volunteers came together to collect donations at storefronts and intersections throughout the Chicago area. All donors received a packet of jelly belly beans and all donations benefit the 8,000 children and adults with intellectual/developmental disabilities that Clearbrook serves each year.

As one of the agency's largest annual fundraising events, Jelly Belly Days is only possible thanks to the support of dedicated volunteers and welcoming communities. Whether "tagging" for the first time in 2017 or returning as a tradition with friends and family, every volunteer makes a positive impact on Clearbrook clients. The more people who participate, the more opportunities are generated to benefit our programs and services. Clearbrook is already looking forward to next year's Jelly Belly Days!
