Our Mission

Invest For Kids is dedicated to supporting highly impactful nonprofit organizations that serve Chicago area youth in low-income circumstances. We host an annual investment conference where industry leaders share their best ideas. Our co-founders underwrite 100% of the conference expenses, allowing all proceeds from the conference to be awarded to our nonprofit partners and ongoing initiatives.

Our Model

Invest For Kids has three principle goals:

  1. Assemble the most highly regarded investment managers to present their best investable ideas
  2. Bring the Chicago investment community together annually for a highly anticipated event
  3. Support not-for-profits that serve Chicago area youth with an emphasis on smaller organizations where IFK’s funding will have the most impact
