Mesirow Financial Sponsors Second Annual “Allergy-Aware”  

Northbrook Fourth of July Pancake Breakfast

CHICAGO (June 08, 2012) — Mesirow Financial today announced that for the second year in a row it is sponsoring the Northbrook Annual Fourth of July “Pancakes in the Park” breakfast including an “allergy-aware” food station. The firm has many employees who live in Northbrook, including Managing Director, Steven Mesirow. Steve’s family has always attended the event, but came up with the idea last year of including an “allergy-aware” station featuring all natural, gluten, dairy, peanut, tree nut  and egg-free waffles.

“As the parent of a child who suffers from severe food allergies, it’s hard to find family events we can all enjoy together without bringing our own food or scrutinizing a menu. We had great success with this station last year, and want to get the word out to more people in the area about it,” said Mesirow. Numerous employees from Mesirow Financial will be working the event including Steve’s father, Richard Mesirow, son of the founder of Mesirow Financial. “It’s a great opportunity to share time with my grandchildren and meet people in the community,” said Richard. “Our firm’s core values incorporate the importance of being involved in our local communities, and we enjoy being involved with this event.”
