Local Vendors

DePaul University and Student Involvement pride itself on utilizing local to Chicago vendors to bring events and experiences to life for students.

While this page is not exhaustive in terms of who you are able to work with, this page includes a number of vendors we work with regularly and recommend.

Notably, OSI holds Master Service Agreements for a number of local vendors. Utilizing a vendor with a MSA allows for an easier contracting process.  Additionally, vendors on this page have Certificates of Insurance managed by OSI, which makes the event planning process easier on your end. These vendors are designated with "MSA" and are bolded in the vendor listing below.
