Field Foundation Board Members and Life Directors met on September 19 and approved our latest round of grantees. These organizations represent our grantmaking model of Community Empowerment through Justice, Art, Media & Storytelling and Leadership Investment. Our Justice portfolio focuses on systemic intervention work led by ALAANA (African Latinx Asian Arab and Native American) organizers working in communities across Chicago. Note the work this round we are honored to support in affordable housing, immigration, and cannabis legalization. The Art portfolio focuses on space-making and capacity-building, with continued emphasis on the intersections within Art and Justice. The inaugural Media & Storytelling portfolio supports ALAANA leadership and outlets that are taking multifaceted approaches to disrupting inequities within the media map. And our Leadership Investment portfolio doubles down on supporting the visionaries across our city working in our program areas of Justice, Art and Media & Storytelling. We are proud of our Fall 2019 grantees and are inspired by their bold vision and work.
