10th Anniversary Make Room For Debate Luncheon

Participation in Chicago Debates is a transformative and skill building experience for the Chicago Public School students who debate in our program.

Your generosity and support make this all happen.....

Here are some unique experiences, while not necessarily transformative, will be life-enhancing and are sure to become cherished and memorable. Bid on one or many, and share the link with your friends!

Chicago Debates is bridging the educational opportunity gap for Chicago Public School (CPS) students by providing them with an after-school program that supports their academic, career, and leadership success.

Our mission is to advance the educational achievement, community contributions, and life success of Chicago’s youth through the transformative power of academic debate. We envision a world in which Chicago youth are empowered to find their voice, succeed in college and career, and become leaders in their community.
