What an event! Oak Leyden is incredibly grateful for the folks that attended our special golf event on July 16th. The 7th Annual Bankers Charitable Golf Classic resulted in a donation of over $10,000.00 for Oak Leyden support of folks with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. But the dollars raised doesn't begin to tell the entire story. Take it from the participants themselves!
“It is absolutely brilliant to see bankers across a multitude of firms and specializations come together to support our community and the incredible work of Oak Leyden. We’re all in this industry because we’re passionate about helping businesses thrive, helping people succeed and helping our communities prosper.
This event truly epitomized that, a bringing together of the Chicago’s financial community to support a wonderful and very deserving cause.”

“The 2025 Willing to Hunt Golf Classic at Ruffled Feathers was more than just a great day on the course, it was a fantastic opportunity to connect with new people in a relaxed setting. I had the chance to meet several bankers I hadn’t crossed paths with before, and it was equally rewarding to watch my younger staff expand their own professional networks. And while a mid-round downpour tried to test our dedication, it ended up being one of those moments that made the day even more memorable, after all, nothing says ‘true networking’ like bonding over soggy scorecards. The event struck the perfect balance of business development, relationship building, and a lot of fun all in support of a great cause. We’re already looking forward to next year!”
