Nike has proudly served as the Title Sponsor of the CFC for the past several years and has a commitment
to continue supporting CFC as it showcases higher education, scholarships, athleticism and the city
of Chicago – all in one great event.
Nike and CFC have much in common, starting with the principles that bridge the activities in
the classroom with the character and community-building skills on the field. Dedicated to excellence,
the will to improve and the desire to achieve. These are the makings of Nike. These are the goals CFC
strives to impress upon African American youth, via awareness activities at the CFC, scholarship opportunities,
and adopt-a-school programming.
We, at Nike, value our involvement in the CFC as it promotes the benefits of attending an HBCU,
with their proven record of producing cultural legacies and other successes, and encouraging the
infinite potential for African American youth to achieve their personal best now and in the future.
With that said, Nike is a major supporter of this event, which encourages all of Chicago
to join in on the fun and excitement of the CFC.
