The soiree benefited the Israel Idonije Foundation, which provides a plethora of programs for empowering children across Chicago, the needy in Africa via Project Africa, and fostering community unity among urban youth and law enforcement via the highly-talked-about program, Shop with a Cop. Additionally, the IIF's All Star Football and Cheer Camp is renowned for its quality work with youth and the program's ability to foster strong leadership skills and confidence in tomorrow's leaders.
Moxie Strategies, LLC, the producer of this successful soiree, is known to host some of Chicago's top industry parties. Some of their previous endeavors include The Masked Rabbit and Candyland. The company's events are quite niche, appealing to the upwardly-mobile professional market, giving them unique and effective experiences and opportunities to network with other professionals so as to grow their business endeavors. The company believes that in helping businesses flourish, the local and national businesses, along with Moxie, can better assist those in need. Moxie’s mission is to provide visibility for small businesses and under-served local charitable organizations.
Attendees enjoyed an evening of delicious hors d'oeuvres, free-flowing premium champagne, and savory cocktails, which included the I|O Rooftop Lounge's special Moscow Mule.
In addition to savory evening elixirs, decadent desserts were provided by some of Chicago's top patisseries and restaurants for attendees to enjoy. This sweet treat, obviously enjoyed in moderation, was a top contender for many guests.
Some of Untitled Chicago's dining team was present to showcase their delicious bourbon and southern-inspired delight. Their food was a delight and definitely worth checking out.
Fashionistas and models adorned both the stage and the crowd as the who's who industry soiree boasted some of Chicago's most notable individuals within the fashion, lifestyle, and society social-circuit. Glenn Marshall, a current model represented in Chicago, enjoyed a glass of bubbly throughout the evening while working the crowd.
Guests, from one side of the rooftop to the other, wouldn't stop discussing the allure of the evening. Top insiders from the industry made their way to the event not just for a wonderful night out, but also for the opportunity to raise money for a worthy cause. Bravo to Moxie Strategies for hosting a top-tier event full of successful marketing opportunities, delish bites, and enticing spirits.
Cheers! We look forward to the next one.
