Welcome to the Chicago YPB Quack for a Cause page — we’re so glad you’re here!
We're thrilled to have your support as we rally behind Special Olympics Illinois with our Young Professionals Board (YPB) team!
✨ Please join us for a splashy Happy Hour at The Northman on July 17th — mix, mingle, meet our incredible board, and help us spread the word (and the ducks)!
✨ We're gearing up to make waves at the Chicago Ducky Derby on August 7th, and we need your help to reach our 2,000 duck adoption goal (or exceed it!)
✨ Ready to win big? Adopt a duck, quack pack, ducky dozen, or a whole flock for your chance to snag exciting prizes — including the grand prize: a Chevy Trailblazer!
✨ Want to see the action live? Waddle over to the Columbus Drive Bridge on August 7th at 1:00 PM for the race of the year.
Over 75,000 rubber ducks will be ready to take the plunge from the Columbus Drive Bridge into the Chicago River — all to support the amazing athletes of Special Olympics Illinois. Every duck you adopt fuels programs for more than 26,000 athletes and partners across Illinois.
Thank you for making a splash and supporting our Young Professionals Board! Let's get QUACKING
