Kids First initiative

At Chicago Youth Centers (CYC), we educate and support children and families so they can succeed in the 21st century. We equalize access to the tools, experiences, and resources needed for youth ages 3-18 to persist academically and develop socially and emotionally.

We specialize in helping boys to become Men
We equip at-risk students with vital resources needed for each step of the academic life cycle.

What is Trivia Night - a large group event, usually staged to benefit a charitable cause or organization. During a trivia night, a master of ceremonies reads trivia questions split up into different categories or rounds. The questions are then answered by different groups of people in an audience. These groups, also known as "teams" or "tables," typically consist of 4 - 6 people who have paid an admission fee to participate. At the end of each round, a representative from each team turns in its answers to a panel of judges who then calculate the scores for each team. The teams compete against one another with the top team receiving prizes.
