Dear Friends,

The health, safety and well-being of Oak Park, River Forest and our neighboring communities is our highest priority.

We continue to follow the Restore Illinois Plan, and guidance from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) to curb the spread of COVID-19, and protect the lives and livelihoods of our fellow community members.

To ensure our board, staff, and fellow community members can safely work and safeguard their neighbors and loved ones, the Foundation office is closed to visitors until further notice.

Our daily operations continue without disruption, and we are steadfast in our commitment and service to our donors and nonprofit community.

Please call the Foundation if you have any questions about Foundation-related operations or events at 708-848-1560. We are happy to help you.

In health,
 
Antonio Martinez, Jr.
President and CEO

 

Our dedication to engaging people and mobilizing resources to secure our community remains steadfast. In response to the COVID-19 global health emergency, the Foundation’s leaders and Board of Directors have established the Rapid Response and Recovery Fund. This fund will infuse desperately needed dollars to those agencies that are on the front lines providing daily, ongoing support to our most affected community members, including the elderly, the economically at-risk, and those with health concerns.
