The Robert R. McCormick Foundation, established in 1955, has granted over $1.8 billion to foster thriving communities in Chicagoland, with a particular focus on education, journalism, and civic engagement. The Foundation emphasizes investment in early childhood education and strengthens civic institutions, especially in underserved neighborhoods such as Englewood and Little Village.

Reflecting the values of its benefactor, Colonel Robert R. McCormick, the Foundation also manages Cantigny, his 500-acre estate in Wheaton, Illinois, which serves as a venue for public learning and recreation. Through strategic partnerships and community-focused initiatives, the Foundation aims to provide resources and opportunities for individuals and families to succeed.
