Responding to the COVID-19 crisis became an urgent priority for The Coleman Foundation when the Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS) Division of Developmental Disabilities announced that all community day services programs operated by nonprofit organizations should close as of March 17,2020. As a funder of the affected organizations, we immediately began checking in with our grantees to ascertain the impact of the shutdown on them and the people they serve. This informal assessment by Senior Program Officers Rosa Berardi and Clark McCain compelled the Foundation to award more than $1 million in subsequent grants to fund organizational responses to the pandemic.
Organizations with funding coming mostly from IDHS reported struggling with increased expenses to deliver care safely at the same time they experienced dire risks to their revenue streams. Group homes they managed became quarantine sites where residents remained for weeks in the absence of programs they might otherwise attend, even when infected with COVID-19.
Private fundraising represents a critical element of the agency business model and many grantees reported the cancellation of spring galas and other fundraisers, which directly threatened the viability of their organizations. Funding from IDHS typically represents between 70 and 90% of revenues for providers and this funding does not cover the costs of services provided. Nineteen grantees experienced a loss in net income of $5.5 million from canceled private fundraising events.
“With the suspension of programs and trainings at our facilities due to COVID-19, and the pandemic necessitating the move of our largest fundraiser to a virtual effort,” noted Bobbi Frazes Goldman, Director of Development at Have Dreams, “the Foundation’s extraordinary gift has been vital to maintaining operations. You made it possible for us …to mitigate the social isolation that is inherent in autism, and to meet the needs of our participants who are especially vulnerable during this extended period of social distancing.”

The Coleman Foundation dedicated $2.7 million in 2020 for neighborhood entrepreneurship programs, pushing its total of awards granted over the past four years for the Chicago entrepreneurial ecosystem to more than $6 million.
Chicago business owners on the South and West Sides of Chicago were dramatically affected by the “triple threat” of the pandemic, the economic downturn, and civil unrest. In light of these developments, entrepreneurs had heightened needs for guidance on how to pivot their businesses and also for support in obtaining grant and loan capital made available.
Following the looting in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods in June, McCain visited several grantees and spoke with business owners. Greater Southwest Development Corporation, which had its own offices damaged in the Chicago Lawn neighborhood, took him on a tour of the 63rd Street business district. “A moment that captures the challenges,” McCain notes, “was when we met with a local jeweler whose store was badly looted. We were standing in the offices of Greater Southwest, just beyond their own broken-out window and this entrepreneur was struggling, pondering where his business could go from there.”
The Foundation awarded general operating grants to business service organizations (BSOs) in the wake of these concurrent obstacles. We also supported collaborations between universities and BSOs which enabled college students to assist small business owners during the summer.
Antonio Archilla, a 3rd year engineering student at IIT noted that, “it was really great to partner with a business and develop a customized strategy for their specific needs. I felt I learned a lot from this internship about how to conduct market research and how to revamp marketing strategies for a small business. My many thanks to the Chicago Urban League and the benefactors for this program.” Daphne Williams, owner of Smarty Pants Early Learning Center said, “The interns I had were bright, creative and full of ideas and energy. I was working on developing an e-learning platform for my center, and their technical knowledge was a valuable asset. I’m grateful for the opportunity to have worked with them.”
The Foundation renewed support for the Fund for Equitable Business Growth (FEBG) which enables collaborations among BSOs across the region. A perspective shared from Business Services Collective highlights the impact this effort is having:
“In late 2018, SOUL invited us to their Construction Business Academy, where we interviewed 30 entrepreneurs and discovered the high demand for estimation services. Throughout 2019, we piloted our service and spoke with 100 more entrepreneurs, most of them met through events we attended in partnership with SOUL and Elevate. Being able to build on the trusted relationships SOUL and Elevate have cultivated with their networks of construction entrepreneurs has allowed BSC to launch our service in 2020 at full internal capacity and add clients as quickly as we are able to serve them.”
Shifting its attention to Chicago’s multicultural far North Side, the Foundation renewed support for the Rogers Park Business Alliance GROW program. “We were honored by The Coleman Foundation in 2020 when they determined that our GROW entrepreneurial training program was worth a substantial investment to provide the curriculum in Spanish,” stated Sandi Price, Executive Director of RPBA. “We were able to hire a Spanish-speaking business educator, rent space on Clark Street, and start reaching out to businesses and entrepreneurs — on Clark Street, where most of our Spanish-speaking businesses are located.”

The Foundation ended the year becoming a charter donor to We Rise Together, a multi-funder, regional initiative led by the Chicago Community Trust which consists of three complementary and interconnected efforts: 1) A philanthropic fund for making catalytic grants and investments; 2) Galvanizing private-sector actors to adopt equitable business practices; and 3) Identifying public policy and systems changes to achieve and sustain results that advance equity in our region. Foundation president & CEO Shelley A. Davis was named to the Steering Committee directing this initiative and we anticipate it to grow support for neighborhood entrepreneurship endeavors.

The Coleman Foundation dedicated $1.8 million towards Cancer Care and Health & Rehabilitation programs during 2020.
One thing we’ve learned from funding cancer programs for decades, is that cancer care requires treating the whole patient, not just their cancer. In addition to treatment, patients need holistic, supportive and social care to heal and thrive. To this end, years ago, the Foundation prioritized supportive oncology and funded a collaborative of Chicago cancer centers to provide more comprehensive care. As Eileen Knightly, OSF HealthCare Little Company of Mary Medical Center, says, “Four years ago, we wouldn’t have shared a piece of paper. Today we’re working together, across Chicago cancer treatment sites, improving supportive care and access to resources for all our patients.”
We’ve also learned from current research that medical caregivers experience burnout, which results in medical errors, decreased efficiency, loss of productivity and job turnover—all of which effects patient care.
As the profound and unprecedented implications of COVID-19 became clearer, Coleman’s staff reached out to partner hospitals to learn more about the impact on cancer patients and their caregivers, the enormous strain on resources, and how the pandemic highlighted health disparities and inequities for people of color in the Chicagoland area. In response, a series of awards were made, including Sinai Health System for the hospital’s response efforts to care for patients with COVID-19; and the University of Chicago Medical Center and La Rabida Children’s Hospital to support the South Side Pediatric Asthma Center (SSPAC), which trains community health workers in assisting pediatric asthma patients and their families. “Early in the COVID pandemic, SSPAC developed a virtual training program for community health workers. During this period, community health workers began working virtually with 108 new patients and provided families with food and cleaning supplies after the civil unrest,” noted Brenda Battle, at the University of Chicago Medicine and Biological Sciences Division.
The Foundation made general operating awards enabling organizations to adjust programming from in-person to virtual delivery and address social determinants of health, such as food insecurity. Every year, 1 in 5 cancer deaths are a direct consequence of malnutrition and nearly 80% of cancer patients experience some form of malnutrition. Courtney White, Founder of Culinary Care, describes her organization as being on a to bring compassion and nourishment to everyone diagnosed with cancer. “It’s a complex problem,” White says, “but we believe any solution at all must start with compassion and end with food. For us it is really about taking something off their plate, by putting something on it.”

While healthcare providers wrestled with the various challenges caused by COVID, the Foundation responded with increased funding to support immediate needs of individuals and communities. As healthcare providers realized that COVID would have long-term implications, we responded with grant awards to address patient recovery efforts after lengthy hospitalizations. These awards included the launch of two recovery units by Chicago area providers which continue to operate and care for COVID patients.
The Foundation ended 2020 grantmaking with 18 grants to single-focused cancer support organizations, including nonprofits that provide: housing or food for patients during cancer treatment; peer-to-peer counseling support; breast health testing for uninsured or underinsured women; financial assistance to cancer survivors and caregivers; gift packages for children who might be experiencing their last Christmas; connections between artists and cancer patients in a therapeutic way; camps for children whose parents have or had a cancer diagnosis; and other beneficial services.

In January, the Foundation formalized 69 awards totaling $712,125 to organizations that participated in its 2019 #ILGIVE Matching Grants Program. The Foundation rapidly levered this model to develop and offer an expanded matching grants program in the spring in response to the loss of fundraising events by many organizations. Resulting from this effort, the Foundation awarded 79 grants totaling $1,866,102, making this effort the Foundation’s largest in its eight years run of matching grants offerings.
Foundation board members bring various perspectives and interests to grantmaking. In 2020, Coleman board members explore areas of interests while also responding to immediate needs highlighted by the COVID pandemic. The total grants awarded in this category was $525,000.
In March 2020, Michael W. Hennessy, who served as the Foundation’s President & CEO since 1995, announced he would retire at the end of the year. In recognition of Mike’s long tenure and in honor of his leadership and service to the Chicago community, the Foundation awarded Hennessy Legacy Grants to grantees personally selected by Mike, including some the Foundation has supported during the entire duration of his leadership of the Foundation.
