Why Give?

Our program could not exist without the generous donations from individuals, corporations and foundations. As a result of the community’s kindness, and so very important to the children and families we serve, during 2019 we were able to provide over $885,000 in financial assistance.

We use your donation wisely! Since our inception, approximately 90% of every dollar we spend is on Programs that serve children and young adults with physical disabilities and only 10% on Management and Fundraising.

The Center meets all 20 Better Business Bureau of Chicago Standards for Charity Accountability, is a Gold Seal of Transparency holder by Guidestar Charity Navigator, and was awarded a 2017 Top Non-Profit Award by Philanthropedia. Check out our awards!

The Center's most recent IRS Form 990 can be found on GuideStar.
CFI Form 990 Tax Returns can be downloaded at Charity Navigator.
