Give What You Can
An "every gift matters" philosophy propelled this $30 million capital campaign to completion.
The campaign, which ran from October 2001 to August 2005, raised $30 million in gifts from more than 50,000 individuals, corporations and foundations.
Reaching its fundraising goal enabled GCFD to qualify for a $1 million Kresge Foundation challenge grant to complete the campaign. With the donations, the organization built a 268,000-square-foot food bank and training center, and now can provide additional programs and resources for people in need in Chicago’s Cook County.
