Associate Board helps the tiniest patients and their families

The Associate Board of NorthShore University HealthSystem (NorthShore) will host its 14th annual Mardi Gras Benefit on Saturday, March 2, at the School of the Art Institute, to raise money in support of NorthShore’s tiniest patients and their families at NorthShore Evanston Hospital’s Henrietta Johnson Louis Infant Special Care Unit (ISCU) and Department of Pediatrics, including an innovative research project to prevent and treat preterm labor.

The Mardi Gras-themed evening will feature a raffle, silent auction, hors d’oeuvres, libations, a dessert bar and entertainment. The event will run from 8 p.m. - midnight at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, 112 South Michigan Ave., Chicago.

Proceeds will support neo-natal projects at NorthShore Evanston Hospital. Proceeds will also support the Associate Board Emergency Family Fund, which provides direct support to underserved families.

Tickets are $125 per person. To reserve your space, purchase raffle tickets or make a donation, visit https://foundation.northshore.org/associate-board-benefit.
