Busby Group Gives Back 2022
/At Busby Group, helping to create a better community for all Chicagoans is a foundational piece of our business, and our partnership with the Greater Chicago Food Depository (GCFD) is just one way we contribute.
Since November 2020, a portion of the proceeds from every Busby Group deal goes directly to GCFD via our year-long food drive (you can donate anytime!). To date we have raised over $25K and nearly 80,000 meals, making Busby Group the #7 overall fundraising team for GCFD.
And the team has also been busy with their own charitable efforts too!
