United Way of Metro Chicago’s very first Neighborhood Network launched in Brighton Park more than a decade ago. Now, after years of hard work and community-led vision, the Brighton Park Neighborhood Council Service Center is a beacon of hope — and opportunity — on the Southwest Side.
On the South Side of Chicago, the Green Era Campus is an ambitious, community-led project transforming food waste into clean energy, local jobs, and long-term neighborhood wealth. United Way of Metro Chicago, BMO, and the Robert R. McCormick Foundation are thrilled to invest in what’s next.
North Lawndale is making waves on the West Side. The historically rich community is the latest to join United Way of Metro Chicago’s Neighborhood Network Initiative.
The early childhood education and youth development nonprofit unveiled its renovated flagship site in Little Village earlier this month. United Way of Metro Chicago was thrilled to attend the ribbon cutting — and support the community’s milestone through One Lawndale and the Little Village Neighborhood Network.
