Bowlero Bowling - June 28, 2018

Unity Partnership sponsored a magnificent bowling event to gather police and the youth in the community for a round of bowling just to get to know one another.  There were approximately 62 people in attendance who were paired up to face off in a competitive game that was just about unstoppable...they were to become a team!

 The kids were bowling with laughter and appreciation of the fact that police were their partners!  In the end, we all came together for a conversation about how much we enjoyed each other's company and awards were given to everyone.  The awards were donated by a man who understands "change begins with ordinary people."

Several officers were there from various police departments, such as Naperville, Aurora, DuPage & Kane counties sheriff department, and Westmont police.  Our volunteers came to assist in any way possible. We are forever grateful to everyone for their participation.

We had lots of food and drinks...everyone took pictures and the waiters were extraordinary.  Every time I witness such collaboration and unity, it warms my heart and it validates the reason for what we do, how we do it, and why we should all be involved.  ---Regina Brent, Founder & President

Bowling Bolero 2017

10/12/2017

This was an evening of fun and laughter as  our surrounding DuPage and Kane counties police officers and youth squared off in a game of bowling against their neighboring departments. The purpose of this event was to familiarize our young people with law-enforcement off-site and to establish a friendship based on the point of humanity. We wanted to build trust between one another for the safety of our communities. Many of our youth have not had non-service contact with police officers who serve and protect in their neighborhoods. It was a great opportunity to develop relationships as public servants and citizens to ensure a continuance of accountability and safety for our communities in DuPage County.
