I’d like to give a big thanks to everyone who has donated so far this year to help us raise $50K by our December 1 deadline in order to win the $50K challenge grant from the Chicago Community Trust. Can you help us win the challenge grant by chipping in? You can make a tax-exempt donation here.

Thanks for your support, and have a great summer.
