Philanthropy & Grant-Making Foundations


Financial Assistance For Families Experiencing Hardship During Cancer Battle
Founded in 2004, Angels of Hope is an all-volunteer foundation created to help relieve the financial strain caused by a cancer diagnosis. Our 501(c)(3) foundation wants families with children to focus on what's important during their treatment: their health and their family. So, we provide emergency financial assistance to qualified applicants. Assistance includes rent/mortgage, utilities, food, transportation and insurance. Every year, we provide nearly $1,000,000 in financial assistance.

Foreign Change For Change
Co-founded by a group of diverse, passionate Northwestern University students, COMMUNITY CURRENCY (CC) seeks to chip away at educational inequalities by optimizing on the fact that more than 90% of international travelers return to the United States with leftover foreign currency. Here’s how it works: (1) CC collects foreign currency in international airports, college study-abroad offices, and banks; (2) the foreign currency is converted into American money; and (3) that money directly supports disadvantaged Chicagoland children’s participation in summer camps at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Chicago. We dream to ensure that the zip code you’re born in doesn’t determine the story of your life.

Committed To Finding A Cure For Cancer Through Basic Science Cancer Research
Cancer is personal. We, at THE H FOUNDATION, are united by the common goal to make a difference in the fight against cancer through Basic Science Cancer Research to accelerate discoveries that can lead to cures. THE H FOUNDATION was created, as all great ideas are, by a few entrepreneurial friends over a cocktail called the Goombay Smash. Every summer, THE H FOUNDATION hosts the Goombay Bash, a Caribbean-style fundraising party that has raised over $8 million for the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center of Northwestern University.
