Our Grantmaking Strategy

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.

    Coalition for a Better Chinese American Community

    Awarded: Awarded Amount: $8,000

    Previously, we developed and implemented a discussion-based curriculum with Project: Vision to confront anti-Blackness within our community and to move participants, who were primarily Chinese-speaking parents, towards building solidarity with other communities of color. The proposed project is a continuation of this work and aims to provide young Chinese Americans in Chicago with a supportive space to -develop a common language to talk about racism, -unpack and heal from harms they have suffered because of racism, -better understand the role of racism and structural oppression in the our nation’s history, -and connect their experiences with racial-ethnic discrimination to that of other racial-ethnic groups, particularly Black Americans.
