In the News: Turkey and Winter Coat Giveaway

Sharp Capital Advisors Supports BUILD Organization’s Annual Turkey and Winter Coat Giveaway

CHICAGO, Nov. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Sharp Capital Advisors, a boutique investment bank specializing in the cannabis industry, proudly supported the BUILD organization in Chicago last week during its annual turkey and winter coat giveaway. Sharp donated 1,000 turkeys to the most needy families in the Austin and Humboldt Park neighborhoods, two areas served by BUILD’s youth services programs.

BUILD provides essential services to thousands of disadvantaged and at-risk youths on Chicago’s West Side. These neighborhoods, like many low-income Black and Latino communities, have been disproportionately impacted by the nation’s ill-conceived war on drugs. In addition to offering crisis intervention, counseling, and other support services at schools throughout the area, BUILD has constructed a state-of-the-art community center in Austin. This facility includes a health clinic, one-on-one counseling, music studio, art studio, woodworking shop, fully functioning garden and farmers market, gymnasium, and other spaces for community gatherings. BUILD’s center has become a beacon of hope in these impoverished communities and a model now being emulated across the country.
