CURE has partnered with JT for the last 20 years to help plan and execute our annual fundraising event. The team consistently brings fresh ideas, and the evening goes off beautifully because of their preparation and attention to detail. With the help of JT, CURE raised a record $2.3 million at our 20th Annual Chicago Benefit.
