For more than 100 years, The Chicago Community Trust has convened, supported, funded, and accelerated the work of community members and changemakers committed to strengthening the Chicago region. From building up our civic infrastructure to spearheading our response to the Great Recession, the Trust has brought our community together to face pressing challenges and seize our greatest opportunities. Today, that means confronting the racial and ethnic wealth gap.

For over 45 years, the mission of the Carole Robertson Center for Learning (the Center) has been to educate, enrich, and empower children and families. Our programs reach children at every stage of development – from prenatal to age 17 – and their families, and we focus on BIPOC communities that have suffered from a legacy of disinvestment and marginalization. Our vision is to help build a just and equitable society wherein the Center, in partnership with families, is a beacon of best practices, innovation, and impact. In September 2023, we launched our first-ever campaign – Invest Today, Empower Tomorrow – to ensure we can continue to provide enriching environments for the exceptional education that all children, youth, and families deserve. By ensuring working parents in some of Chicago’s most marginalized communities have access to high-quality early education and youth development programs for their children, the Center is playing a key role in the city’s economic recovery and long-term prosperity. The campaign is focused on increasing capital resources, promoting future program innovation, and guaranteeing the long-term stability of our organization so that we can continue to play this vital role for many decades to come. We are requesting funding from We Rise Together to support innovative, child-centered, and community-driven capital improvements at our flagship site located at 2929 West 19th Street in Little Village.
