Description

We’re gathering the best local nonprofits under one roof, so individuals looking for ways to support their community can find the cause that needs their unique talents. We know a strong volunteer program is vital to the success of so many nonprofits, including those which serve DeKalb County. We’ve designed this event to do two things: connect local causes with the people who power them, and empower individuals to find meaningful ways to give back to their community.

The DeKalb County Volunteer Fair has been planned by the following members of the 2025-2026 DeKalb Chamber Leadership Academy class:

Casey Bachochin, DeKalb Township

Robin Borgione, Egyptian Theatre

Megann Horstead, Shaw Media

Emily Kvasnicka, DeKalb Park District

Nicole Ruffin, Safe Passage

Charles Schmitt, DeKalb Mechanical

Menelek Shah, NIU Police Department
