"Born and raised in Chicago, I learned at a young age that community starts with us, the neighbors, made up of 77 communities, commitment, hard work and dedication. We're much more than just a second city. We are visionaries, we are creators, we are fans, we are friends, we are stories, stories that matter, like yours."
-Mike
