Saving Lives During Covid 19 | Give Campaign
In the City of Chicago, 70% of the COVID-19 deaths were Black residents, even though Black people make up only 29% of Chicago’s population. The crisis has only underscored the deeply-rooted and systemic inequities that have persisted for generations for the families we serve: 98% are Black, 100% are low income, and many don’t have access to basic needs.
I Grow Chicago, alongside our Englewood community, is focusing all of our resources on helping our neighbors during the COVID-19 pandemic. But we can’t do it alone. We’re asking you to make a gift to I Grow Chicago in support of our COVID-19 relief efforts. Every dollar counts in our work to protect those most vulnerable. 100% of your gift will support our community and our frontline workers in our COVID19 response. Help us build a community of support. Let’s show the residents of Englewood, and the entire world, that no life is expendable.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact our Director of Development Zelda Mayer at 512-653-9849 or via e-mail: zeldamayer@igrowchicago.org.
