Building Community Foundation

The Obama Foundation is dedicated to fostering community engagement and development through the creation of the Obama Presidential Center, designed by award-winning architects in Chicago's Jackson Park. The campus will feature public amenities, including an observation deck, a library branch, recreational areas, and trails, aimed at enriching the local community. Funded entirely through private donations, the Foundation collaborates with various academic institutions, community leaders, and organizations to further its mission. The Center will bring together resources and exhibits in partnership with the National Archives and Records Administration, allowing visitors to actively engage with Presidential history.
