BRIGHT PROMISES FOUNDATION

The mission of Bright Promises Foundation is to support, implement and expand programs that address the urgent, unmet needs of low-income and at-risk children and families, while also contributing to the creation of long-term solutions that increase equity and access to quality programs and services in the Greater Metropolitan Chicago Area. Through research and discussion with leading children’s experts, Bright Promises determines the most critical needs of Chicagoland children that are currently under-recognized and underfunded. Then, we carefully select leading community-based social service agencies and provide the necessary knowledge, experience, and financial support to implement and expand cutting-edge programs that are results-driven, sustainable, and improve the lives of children now and in the future. Last year we supported programs serving more than 10,000 children, 3,600 parents, and 1,300 service providers at 86 sites throughout Chicagoland.
