cheeky does charity

Born and raised in Chicago, Jennifer has been spreading her charitable wings since she was very little; wearing adult sized t-shirts down to her knees – volunteering at multiple fundraisers, walks and motorcycle rides held by The American Brain Tumor Association. While attending school at Muhlenberg College in Pennsylvania, Jennifer could be found in and around Allentown donating time to painting walls at the local YMCA, serving dinner at a downtown soup kitchen or picking up trash throughout local parks.

Graduating with both a major in history and Asian culture, Jen has opted to go in a completely different direction and works in Chicago as a concierge. Jen continues on with her charitable work, currently donating time between the Jane Adams Hull House, The Greater North Michigan Avenue Association, Chicago’s 2016 Olympics and other organizations and projects citywide.

Jennifer is an artist, with dreams of one day opening her own gallery, but for right now she uses her living room walls in liu of. Wonderful other hobbies and habits including attacking the Chicago jazz scene, wandering the zoo and getting lost in the Art Institute still happen in between her charitable endeavors and work.
