We Are The Good Collom Foundation

Two foundations. One mission. One Chicago community.

Good Collom Foundation is made up of two organizations working side by side on Chicago's West Side.

Good Collom Housing Foundation helps families find and keep good homes. We teach people how to buy a home. We fix up empty buildings and turn them into safe, quality places to live. We help workers learn the skills they need to build and repair homes.

Good Collom Community Foundation helps the community grow stronger together. We use art and storytelling to lift up resident voices. We support local nonprofits so they can do more for the people they serve.

Together, we believe that when families have a safe, stable home, everything else in their life can grow from there.
