MISSION

Chicago Cares mobilizes volunteers to build a stronger, more unified Chicago.

 

VISION

At Chicago Cares, they empower people to roll up their sleeves to solve the city’s most pressing challenges. Through the power of the volunteer experience, they bring people together from all Chicago neighborhoods. Chicagoans learn that they can and must be agents of change.

Volunteers meet immediate needs while simultaneously breaking down barriers and creating a movement  for long-term change, connecting with new people and building trust, empathy and understanding. What’s the ultimate goal? Chicago Cares envisions a city where all are active participants, fully invested in the city they call home and the success of all of their neighbors.
