DEAR FRIENDS,

For 99 years, The Chicago Community Trust has reflected the collective spirit of commitment to community powered by the generosity of donors, residents, and non- profit and civic leaders throughout our region.

To mark our 99th anniversary, we began in earnest to spark that spirit of community by engaging a much larger circle of residents in a conversation about the future of metropolitan Chicago. During On The Table, nearly 12,000 residents gathered in small groups to share meals and voice their ideas that could make our region even stronger. The result: one of the most powerful moments of civic reflection that the Chicago region has ever experienced.

In addition to thousands of ideas, the Trust heard a powerful call for more opportunities for community residents to connect and col - laborate. Our fellow residents share a passionate desire to work together to overcome barriers and solve the most pressing challenges that keep individuals and communities from succeeding.

As we advance in our centennial year, we carry with us that echo of community conversation surfaced by On the Table. In the face of a rapidly changing economy, increasing diversity and disparity, shrinking role of government, and growing frustration with political grid - lock, we heard the call for the Trust to — on behalf of our donors and nonprofits that we serve — lead by supporting and inspiring more opportunities for resident-centered discussion and action.

To that end, we’ve committed our centennial year, 2015, to inspiring more philanthropy — more public good — by amplifying stories of people and institutions that make our region vibrant. Without question, our donors, grant recipients and affiliates are representative of these heroic stories.

We remain grateful for the opportunity to serve you, and we look forward to sharing many of your stories.

You inspire us.

Sincerely,

FRANK M. CLARK Chairman of the Executive Committee

TERRY MAZANY Frank M. Clark (l.) and Terry Mazany President and Chief Executive Officer

36 THE CHICAGO COMMUNITY TRUST Liberty Prairie Foundation is working in partnership with Openlands, one of the oldest metropolitan conservation organizations in the nation, to create a plan that will help farmers navigate through the many issues they face when it comes to obtaining land, such as leasing agreements, zoning, municipal codes and land protections. “We’re trying to determine what the real barriers are to make sure that local farmers are viable in the Chicago region,” says Lenore Beyer-Clow, policy director at Openlands, which is also overseeing a regional food study for Food:Land: Opportunity.

URBAN HARVESTS While farm land in the outskirts of the metropolitan area has dwindled, many local organizations and some small farmers have started up urban farms in vacant lots in Chicago. Through a partnership among the City of Chicago, neighborhood orga - nizations, local businesses and residents, the Green Healthy Neighborhoods Land Use Plan was adopted early in 2014 to max - imize the use of vacant lots within Chicago’s Englewood neigh - borhood and other surrounding communities.

40 THE CHICAGO COMMUNITY TRUST ALL INCLUSIVE María Bechily works with the Trust to cultivate grant making that nurtures diversity and inclusion.

María Bechily is keenly aware of how philanthropy can trans - form lives. In 1961, she immigrated to Chicago from Cuba when she was 12 as part of Operation Peter Pan, the Catholic Church program that brought 14,000 Cuban children to the United States. It sought to protect the children of parents who opposed Fidel Castro. Bechily ended up in a foster home in Chicago sepa - rate from her brothers and couldn’t speak English. But her social worker from Catholic Charities and foster family were a source of comfort and support to her as she acclimated to a new country and waited to reunite with her parents two years later. That life-changing experience sparked her passion for giving back. Today Bechily is one of metropolitan Chicago’s most ardent phil - anthropic leaders, partnering with The Chicago Community Trust to foster grant making that supports diversity and inclusion.

EMBRACING DIVERSITY Bechily began working with the Trust in 2004 when she joined the Executive Committee, the Trust’s governing board. During (From l.)

46 THE CHICAGO COMMUNITY TRUST DRIVEN to SUCCEED Automotive Mentoring Group helps at-risk youth develop work and life skills as they restore classic cars.

Laura Mendez has recently gained an appreciation for classic American muscle cars like the ’66 Chevy Impala and ’69 Ford Mustang. Her new interest in these vintage automobiles known for their aggressive power and style is not just a hobby for the 20-year-old. It has been a life-changing experience that has helped her escape gang life, rebuild her relationship with her father and set her on a new path for a better future. Mendez credits the Automotive Mentoring Group for her new lease on life. AMG is a nonprofit supported by The Chicago Community Trust that mentors young men and women like Mendez who have fallen into gang violence by teaching them the art of restoring muscle cars and motorcycles from the midcentury. “I’ve learned so much about myself,” says Mendez, who joined the Bedford Park, Ill.-based program in the summer. “This is therapy for me because it helps me sort out my problems from the past and present.”

UNDER THE HOOD Alex Levesque (r.) and the other mentors at Automotive Mentoring Group Mendez is one of 25 participants in the AMG program.

The shooting of Hadiya Pendleton on Jan. 29, 2013, hit close to home for Bill and Cheryl Lowry. The 15-year-old honor student was caught in the crossfire of gang violence in a park about 10 feet from the Lowrys’ backyard. The tragic incident not only garnered national headlines and cast the spotlight on gun violence in Chicago, it also troubled the Lowry family to see the problem so close to their door - steps. That’s when their 17-year-old son Evan asked them, “What are you going to do about all this violence around us?”

The Lowrys responded to their son’s call to action: They created The It’s Time Organization to prevent and reduce violence in Chicago and partnered with The Chicago Community Trust to aid the new organization in fulfilling its mission.

76 THE CHICAGO COMMUNITY TRUST THE POWER of DATA The Chicago School of Data project seeks to harness data in service of people.

For the Chicago School of Data project, the term “power in num - bers” has multiple meanings. Funded by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation and spearheaded by the Smart Chicago Collaborative, a funder collaborative of The Chicago Community Trust, the Chicago School of Data brings together civic groups throughout the Chicago region to share information as a means to improve lives. Simply put, its premise is that more data shared by more organizations will result in more benefits for everyone. “We want to help organizations use data and technology to do their jobs, be more effective and make lives better,” explains Dan O’Neil, executive director of Smart Chicago. “Our objective is to pull together all of the great energy we see in nonprofit, government and other sectors in a cohesive way that can support everyone.”

DATA MINING By all accounts, it’s a lofty goal and a massive undertaking. O’Neil and his team started from scratch, conducting surveys, inter - views and research with hundreds of organizations to understand how they use data to improve lives in the Chicago region. The team identified challenges organizations face in using data and opportunities to improve the Chicago data ecosystem, including Program Officer Kyla Williams (l.) and Administrative Assistant Sonja potential collaborations between organizations.

102 THE CHICAGO COMMUNITY TRUST The Trust keeps Dimitri Eliopoulos informed about philanthropy in the Chicago region

Dimitri Eliopoulos, partner and senior wealth manager for RMB Capital Management, LLC, has seen firsthand The Chicago Community Trust’s grant making impact and expertise. As a member of the Young Leaders Fund, an identity-focused fund at the Trust, he and his fellow YLF members learn about effective philan - thropy through hands-on grant making. Eliopoulos is also a member of the Trust’s Young Professional Advisory Committee, which is made up of legal, accounting and financial advisors who serve as ambassadors for the Trust. He spoke to Director of Major and Planned Gifts Abbe Temkin about why the Trust is a valuable philanthropic resource for him and his clients.

Temkin: How does The Chicago Community Trust benefit you and your clients?

Eliopoulos: It really comes down to people. The Trust serves as a reliable facilitator for grant making, and a lot of that has to do with the team working hard at the Trust every day. My clients know that if they need guidance or direction on a philanthropic issue, they can speak to an individ - ual at the Trust that they have built a relationship with. That gives me and my team the confidence that when a mutual client calls and needs help, they’ll be taken care of.

Why do you recommend your clients use the Trust to achieve their philanthropic goals?

The Trust should be the first choice for those who have called Chicago home and have an affinity for our great city. The Trust provides guidance, research and direction for those donors who want to make an impact in the community but are not quite sure what neighborhoods or organizations are in the greatest need.

Why do you think the Trust is so important for metrop­ olitan Chicago?

I don’t know of any other organization in Chicago that has a pulse on everything happening socially, economically, politically and culturally. I’ve attended dozens of meetings, presentations and events hosted or sponsored by the Trust over the years. The information that is shared is endless. We are for - tunate to have an institution like the Trust that has been around for almost 100 years and has been a significant contributor to addressing challenges and making Chicago a world-class city.

The Gillettes established their donor advised fund at the Trust in 2005 because the community foundation has a long history of helping donors effectively support nonprofits that help peo - ple in need. “The Trust has been around for almost 100 years.
