In partnership with the Trust, community leaders launched The Will County Community Foundation to provide support to nonprofit organizations and promote philanthropy as a way to create lasting change. One of the fastest growing counties in the U.S., Will County has overcome significant industrial job losses with the help of a strong business sector, thriving real estate market and vibrant civic culture. The Foundation engages residents in tackling ongoing challenges, including providing educational, employment and housing opportunities and removing barriers to access to quality health care, tranportation and other resources for all residents.
