    Lloyd A. Fry Foundation 2005 Annual Report Making Contributions to the Field Mission The Lloyd A. Fry Foundation supports organizations with the strength and commitment to address persistent problems of urban Chicago resulting from poverty, violence, ignorance, and despair. We seek to build the capacity of individuals and the systems that serve them. Our vision is a Chicago that offers education, prosperity, and hope for all. About the Foundation In 1933 Lloyd A. Fry founded the Lloyd A. Fry Roofing Company on the Southwest Side of Chicago. During the next five decades, the company grew to become the world’s largest manufacturer of asphalt roofing and allied products, with nearly 5,000 dedicated employees in manufacturing facilities nationwide. The company was sold to Owens-Corning Fiberglass Corporation in 1977. In large part, the proceeds from the sale of the company now serve as the endowment of the Lloyd A. Fry Foundation. The Foundation has been addressing the needs of the Chicago community since 1983.

  • Maybe Something Beautiful—A New Bilingual English/Spanish Short Film
    For Immediate Release: March 19, 2021 Press contact for Chicago Children’s Theatre: Jay Kelly, 312.315.3935, [email protected] Press contact for Chicago Symphony Orchestra: Eileen Chambers, 312.294.3092, [email protected] MAYBE SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL—A NEW BILINGUAL ENGLISH/SPANISH SHORT FILM FROM CHICAGO CHILDREN'S THEATRE AND THE CHICAGO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA—PREMIERES APRIL 1 CHICAGO–What good can a splash of color do in a community of gray? A neighborhood radically transformed for the better is the answer in Maybe Something Beautiful, a new virtual short film for kids, families and schools from Chicago Children’s Theatre and the Negaunee Music Institute at the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (CSO). Inspired by the award-winning book by F. Isabel Campoy and Theresa Howell, illustrated by Rafael López, Maybe Something Beautiful brings together five CSO musicians performing classical works by Latino composers, bilingual English/Spanish narration, and colorful, playful puppetry to tell a true story about how even the smallest artists among us can accomplish something big. Maybe Something Beautiful, ideal viewing for children ages 5 to 10, will premiere Thursday, April 1 at 10 a.m. CT in a Facebook Premiere event cohosted by Chicago Children’s Theatre and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association. Immediately after, the 13-minute video will be posted on CCTv: Virtual Theatre and Learning from Chicago Children’s Theatre and CSOtv for free, on-demand viewing for children and families in Chicago and around the world. Kids of all ages will love and be inspired by Mira, the young protagonist in Maybe Something Beautiful who decides one day to paste her drawing of a sun on one of the dark walls of an alley, just to bring brightness to the smiles of her neighbors.
