CHICAGO WHITE SOX CHARITIES LOTS 1-52 Chicago White Sox Charities (CWSC) was launched in 1990 to support the Chicagoland community. CWSC provides annual financial, in-kind and emotional support to hundreds of Chicago-based organizations, including those who lead the fight against cancer and are dedicated to improving the lives of Chicago’s youth through education and health and well- ness programs and offer support to children and families in crisis. In the past year, CWSC awarded $2 million in grants and other donations. Recent contributions moved the team’s non-profit arm to more than $25 million in cumulative giving since its inception in 1990. Additional information about CWSC is available at whitesoxcharities.org. 1 Jim Rivera autographed Chicago White Sox 1959 style throwback jersey.
