The Chicago Fire will honor Hispanic Heritage Night Friday (Sept. 16) by sporting white secondary kits featuring commemorative numbers (pictured above) when they take the field against D.C. United. Fans have the opportunity to bid on and win these one-of-a-kind jerseys by participating in an online auction now through the end of halftime on September 16 (approx. 8:00pm CT). Bids can be submitted here or by texting "JERSEY" to 52182.
These authentic jerseys are available for each member of the Chicago Fire roster, plus Sparky. Auction participants do not need to be present at the match to bid or win, but those winners who are in attendance will have the chance to meet the player of whose jersey they won and have it personally autographed! All proceeds for this event serve to support the Chicago Fire Foundation.
Through the Chicago Fire Foundation, the Fire is able to give back to the community by developing programs that reach out to Chicagoland's community. Since 1998, the Chicago Fire Foundation, the charitable arm of the Chicago Fire Major League Soccer Team, has made significant contributions to enhance the lives of disadvantaged youth throughout Chicagoland. The Chicago Fire Foundation is committed to improving the quality of life throughout Chicagoland by leveraging its resources and expertise in the area of soccer to provide sports-based youth development and direct-service programs to underserved communities.
