Better Make Room Chicago
11 June 2018
In celebration of Chicago’s Class of 2018, we’re introducing our #BetterMakeRoomChicago campaign to encourage and empower our students.

In celebration of Chicago’s Class of 2018, we’re introducing our #BetterMakeRoomChicago social media campaign. This is our version of former First Lady (and Whitney Young grad) Michelle Obama’s Better Make Room Initiative. We want to encourage and empower our students to further their education past high school whether it’s professional certification program, city college, or a traditional 4-year college or university.
We’ll be shouting out students all week on our Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, and we hope you’ll join us. Use the hashtag #BetterMakeRoomChicago and we’ll retweet and share your posts.
As we post our stories, we’ll also embed them below.
Congratulations, seniors! We're kicking off the celebration by highlighting your amazing work. @GWCPWarriors' Kayla Lambert is ready to change the world of medicine! #BetterMakeRoomChicago 🎓🎉 pic.twitter.com/Orplje03J6
