ECCI Civic Hall of Fame Memorial Fundraiser

This holiday season, tax-deductible donations in support of the Elmhurst Chamber of Commerce and Industry Centennial Celebration NFP's development of a Civic Hall of Fame public memorial will receive one Elmhurst-Opoly board game (a $25 value) for every $50 donated to a maximum of 10 games ($500).
 
The Civic HOF memorial will feature a TouchPros Touch Wall interactive, touch-screen TV monitor (65 inches) on which users can view biographies, photographs and video clips of each of the inductees, and will be installed in a publicly-accessible location (to be determined).
 
Since its creation in 1992—then as part of the Opening Ceremonies at Elmfest—the Civic HOF has inducted 30 businesspeople, community volunteers and elected officials.  Since Elmfest's end in 2009, inductees have been honored at ECCI's Annual Awards Gala in all but one of those years.
 
To date, our Chamber has raised some $17,000 in Civic HOF funding towards a $50,000 goal set within a once-in-a-lifetime $250,000 Centennial Celebration Capital Campaign established in 2016 as part of ECCI’s 100th Anniversary year in 2018.
 
Donations to the Civic Hall of Fame Fund are tax deductible through the ECCI Centennial Celebration NFP, an Internal Revenue Service-designated 501(c)(3) not-for-profit charitable organization.  Checks can be mailed to the Chamber.
