Recent Grants Support LINK’s Impact in Chicago
We’re incredibly grateful to these organizations for investing in the future of Black Scholars!
- Special thanks to the Leo and Yuki Graham Foundation, longtime supporters of LINK, for their recent gift in support of our mission. “LINK has a 50+ year history of helping thousands of exceptional young Scholars to realize their potential,” said Graham Foundation representatives David and Suzu Neithercut. “We are honored to support and invest in the cultivation of these Scholars—our future leaders.”
- Thanks also to the Manaaki Foundation, LINK supporters since their inception in 2012, who recently awarded us with a two-year grant. “We are proud to provide multi-year operating support for LINK, ensuring they have maximum flexibility and funding stability in pursuing their mission,” said a spokesperson from the Manaaki Foundation. “We are honored to be a part of the LINK community of supporters, especially since education is a main cornerstone for young people to succeed in the world we live in.”
- Finally, we’re grateful for a gift from The Steans Family Foundation. Their organization specifically focuses on education in the North Lawndale area, so their support is helping us provide programming to existing LINK Scholars from North Lawndale as well as deepen our impact in this neighborhood by helping us recruit more North Lawndale students to become LINK Scholars. “The Steans Family Foundation is proud to support LINK Unlimited Scholars’ programming to help students to, through, and beyond college,” said Executive Director Pat Ford. “We believe all students deserve a bright future.”
We appreciate all of our partners and supporters—we couldn’t do this work without you!
Please consider a gift to support our Scholars today.
