Climbers Raise over $132K at Oakbrook Terrace Tower for Lung Health

This morning, 424 people raised more than $132,000 at the 2024 Fight For Air Climb Oakbrook Terrace. The event supports more than 1.4 million people living with lung disease in Illinois.

Climbers of all skill levels raced to the top of Oakbrook Terrace Tower to raise awareness and money to fight lung disease through research, education, and advocacy.

“Thanks to the determination of our supporters and climbers we raised over $132,000 to help ongoing efforts to end lung cancer and lung disease in Illinois,” said Danielle Trojanek, executive director, American Lung Association. “We are very grateful to everyone that came out to support lung health and so proud of the funds raised.”

The Lung Association looks forward to next year’s Oakbrook Climb and will continue its commitment to improving lung health and preventing lung disease at their next Fight For Air Climb event at Chicago’s Soldier Field on May 19. Learn more at FightForAirClimb.org/Chicago.
