In 1987, a group of retired Blackhawk players got together to discuss their future in the Chicago community. 

​Their main objective was to "give something back" to Chicago and to the sport of hockey. In that meeting they developed a three-fold mission statement for the non-profit Chicago Blackhawk Alumni Association.

Our Mission

TO PROVIDE A SCHOLARSHIP FUND FOR THE "MOST DESERVING" HIGH SCHOOL HOCKEY PLAYERS IN ILLINOIS.

TO BECOME INVOLVED IN COMMUNITY AFFAIRS AND CHARITABLE CAUSES.
​
​TO PROTECT AND TAKE CARE OF THEIR FELLOW ALUMNI: "PLAYERS HELPING PLAYERS."
