The Chicago Education Alliance has formed a Dollars for Scholars chapter to raise money for GEAR UP students.

The first money raising event was the Easy Spirit Freedom Walk for Education held in October of 2003. This walk was co-sponsored by Easy Spirit and Scholarship America to benefit Dollars for Scholars chapters in Illinois. The money raised by The Chicago Education Alliance Dollars for Scholars chapter funded scholarships and other education related prizes to give to deserving GEAR UP students.
