On Saturday, July 19th, teams from Chicago-area companies gathered at SoFive ChiTown for Urban Initiatives’ 10th Annual Corporate Challenge Cup. The event brought together colleagues for a day of friendly competition, teamwork, and community support. You can see all the photos from the event on our Facebook page here.
They know firsthand how sports and caring coaches can shape a young person’s life.
Players traded their office shoes for cleats and took to the field with enthusiasm and sportsmanship. After a competitive day of matches, IMC emerged as champions, defeating AbbVie in the final game and earning well-deserved bragging rights.

Beyond the competition, every participant helped advance Urban Initiatives’ mission of delivering free, high-quality sports and play programs to thousands of children across the city. As one staff member from AbbVie said, “We go because showing up matters. Because investing in the next generation means more than writing checks… it means giving time, energy, and belief. Because we don’t just live in this world… we help shape it.”
