The Chicago Community Trust is a regional community foundation based in Chicago, Illinois, with a history spanning more than 111 years. It brings together donors, nonprofits, and residents to support people, organizations, and partnerships that strengthen the Chicago region. The foundation addresses barriers to a thriving community by meeting essential needs such as secure housing and healthy food, and it mobilizes resources in response to crises, including major events like the Great Depression and the COVID-19 pandemic. It operates within the philanthropic fundraising sector, focusing on wealth-building and well-being for Chicagoans, including those historically lacking equal opportunity. Recent developments illustrate its collaborative approach: the Neighborhood Capital Fund is a funders' collaboration led by The Chicago Community Trust with partners such as Schreiber Philanthropy, JPMorgan Chase, and Target Foundation, among others, aimed at closing equity gaps. In 2025 the Trust launched the Stay in Place initiative to preserve homeownership, prevent displacement, and support wealth-building for low- and moderate-income residents of Chicago.
