Interested in running the 2021 Chicago Marathon? You have the opportunity to multiply the impact of each stride by running with GRIP Outreach For Youth! With every step you take & every dollar you raise, you can help us do the important work of investing in the lives of Chicago’s youth.
Here are some ways you can be a part of Team GRIP and invest in Chicago youth:
1) Run With GRIP! We want you to put on your running shoes and train for the race you’ve always wanted to run – the 2021 Chicago Marathon. The GRIP Runners Club is an amazing team that trains together and spurs one another on to 26.2 miles! We’ll sign you up with CARA to ensure the best training and long distance preparation. What are you waiting for? Join the GRIP Runners Club!
2) Support a runner. You don’t have to run to be a part of the team. As runners sign up with the GRIP Runners Club, profiles will be listed on our site and you can sponsor those individuals. Feel free to check in weekly to see what new runners we have! See the runners below, and click to give to them.
3) Make a general donation. If you’re not sure which runner to support, simply make a general marathon donation to help transform lives through Life-on-Life relationships.

Virtual Wine Tasting – Juneteenth Celebration
Celebrate Juneteenth with GRIP! Host friends in your home, or join us from your couch for a Virtual Wine Tasting with professional sommelier, Alicia Barrett, as we journey through various Black-owned wineries.
Juneteenth History
Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. Dating back to 1865, it was on June 19th that the Union soldiers, led by Major General Gordon Granger, landed at Galveston, Texas with news that the war had ended and that the enslaved were now free. Note that this was two and a half years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation – which had become official January 1, 1863. The Emancipation Proclamation had little impact on the Texans due to the minimal number of Union troops to enforce the new Executive Order. However, with the surrender of General Lee in April of 1865, and the arrival of General Granger’s regiment, the forces were finally strong enough to influence and overcome the resistance.
