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 2 outcomes report celebrates the accomplishments of CHWs throughout this pivotal year.
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.
60 youth philanthropists from Hinsdale Central, Lyons Township, Nazareth Academy and Riverside Brookfield High Schools have awarded grants to increase health equity and provide mental health support throughout our communities.
