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.
The Community Health Worker pilot, jointly supported with Healthy Communities Foundation, aims to improve access to culturally competent care and advance health equity in the region.
The Year 3 outcomes report highlights how the CHWs are building towards impact 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.
Applications for the 2023 YC2 program are open to juniors/seniors from Hinsdale Central, Lyons Township, Nazareth Academy, and Riverside Brookfield High Schools and are due on Wednesday, November 23, 2022 by 5:00 PM.
Become a partner in transformation. Apply for a grant and join the Foundation in our vision to create the healthiest region in the country.
