The SBB Research Group Foundation recognizes three Chicago-area charities as the March 2024 finalists of its monthly grant program supporting impactful nonprofits (in alphabetical order):
OMNI Youth Services (Wheeling, IL) functions as a holistic behavioral health entity, catering to various communities in Illinois by providing readily available counseling services and community initiatives aimed at enhancing the well-being of young people, families, and individuals.
Open Communities (Evanston, IL) is committed to eliminating housing discrimination and unjust behaviors that sustain inequality. It cultivates vibrant, inclusive communities by defending fair housing policies, offering housing counseling, providing education and outreach, and engaging in advocacy efforts.
Willow House (Bannockburn, IL) offers grief support and educational resources to young individuals, families, schools, and other affected communities coping with the loss of a parent, sibling, or child. Its no-cost services serve as a starting point for healing, offering a supportive environment for individuals to mourn alongside others who have experienced similar losses. It aspires to ensure that no child, teenager, or parent undergoes the grieving process alone.
The Foundation encourages any 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization to apply for a grant at sbbrg.org/apply-for-grant. Donations are awarded to different organizations monthly.
