What your gift will build this year

Chicago Public Schools funding is always in flux. The Legacy Fund covers what the school budget can’t, and it reaches every student.

  1. Update exercise equipment

    Support student stamina and wellness with new fitness equipment.

  2. Keep one Chromebook for every student

    Replace aging laptops to maintain the 1:1 Chromebook ratio.

  3. Fund student scholarships

    Help students take on academic endeavors and national competitions.

  4. Protect music and drama

    Weather-safe storage for music and drama department instruments and items.

  5. Build a space for social workers

    A deserving space where social workers can counsel students.
