Nicky's No. 1's
Excited by the return home, Chicago White Sox infielder Nicky Lopez and his wife, Sydney, are combining their professional experiences and passion for giving back through a new community outreach program, Nicky’s No. 1’s. With a focus on supporting children and families facing hardship, the couple kickstarted their outreach by visiting patients and staff members at RUSH University Medical Center for National Nurses Week in early May. Lopez, a graduate of Naperville Central High School, also announced his first-ever 16-inch Softball Charity Classic benefiting local cancer resource groups is scheduled for July 11. Be on the lookout for upcoming program, as the Lopez family continues their involvement with local non-profits, nearby hospitals and social service agencies.
