Community Memorial Foundation aims to measurably improve the health of those who live and work in the western suburbs of Chicago. Through partnership with our grantee organizations and other community stakeholders, we manage a grantmaking portfolio that includes our Regional Health and Human Services Agenda, Responsive Grants Program and Building Organizational Effectiveness Program.
Community Memorial Foundation and Healthy Communities Foundation have jointly invested $535,000 in a pilot program to engage a community health worker network in the Western Suburbs.
We are not just grantmakers; we aspire to be changemakers. Through our funding initiatives, we empower organizations to address issues that impact overall community wellness, including healthcare, health equity, food access, housing and public safety.
