All Raise Chicago: 2.1 Run: Funding Equality for Women

​Join us for a transformative event that combines fitness and advocacy, as we take strides towards highlighting an alarming statistic. Introducing the "2.1 Run: Funding Equality for Women" walk/run. This walk/run highlights the gender disparity that persists in the venture capital world, where women-led businesses receive a mere 2.1% of total funding. Lace up your running shoes and join us as we make a powerful statement while exploring the vibrant streets of downtown Chicago.

Whether you're a seasoned runner or a casual walker, this event welcomes individuals of all backgrounds and fitness levels. Join us in breaking down barriers, celebrating women's achievements, and amplifying their voices.

​
