Gar Wood Securities Proud to Sponsor Invest For Kids 2026

Gar Wood Securities is proud to announce its sponsorship of the 18th Annual Invest For Kids Conference, taking place October 28, 2026, at the Harris Theater in Chicago.

Now in its 18th year, Invest For Kids brings together leading investment professionals for an afternoon of idea-sharing, with presenters offering their market perspectives in a series of short segments alongside fireside conversations on markets and the broader economy. Since its founding in 2009, the conference has raised more than $25 million for local nonprofit organizations, and 100% of proceeds continue to go directly toward grants supporting Chicago-area youth in low-income circumstances.

"This is exactly the kind of event we love backing: markets and giving back, in the same room," said Bobby Jersey of Gar Wood Securities. "We're proud to support an event that brings our industry together for a cause that makes a real difference for kids in our community."

Gar Wood Securities will have a presence at the conference and looks forward to connecting with clients, colleagues, and fellow members of the investment community who will be in Chicago for the event.
