Clearbrook's 'First Look for Charity' at the Chicago Auto Show an enjoyable night

On Feb. 7, Clearbrook participated in "First Look for Charity" at the Chicago Auto Show as a benefitting charity.

Clearbrook provides innovative services, opportunities, and supports to over 8,000 people impacted by intellectual/developmental disabilities.

"First Look for Charity" featured complimentary hors d'oeuvres, champagne, wine, soft drinks and dessert - all on the show floor with the chance to explore the new cars before the general public.

Clearbrook's hospitality suite offered an open bar, appetizers and dessert, live entertainment by Four C Notes, and one-of-a-kind room design by Rieke Office Interiors.

Clearbrook would like to thank all of the guests that registered with us for supporting the organization. Thank you to sponsors Enterprise Fleet Management, Arlington Heights Ford, BorgWarner, Assurance, AAC, Honeywell, Rivers Casino, and Rieke Office Interiors.

Sincere thank you to Arlington Heights Ford for donating a red 2009 Mustang to raffle off on the show floor in support of our mission.

Tony Guido, owner of Arlington Heights Ford and chairman for the 2020 Chicago Auto Show, invited one of the residents, Tracy, on stage with him.

Tony Di Vittorio, CEO of Clearbrook, expressed his gratitude for having Ford as a partner: "Clearbrook is extremely grateful for Arlington Heights Ford's support over the years. Seeing Tracy on stage was a special moment for her and all of us."

Part of the proceeds from this event benefitted Clearbrook.
