Many vital programs are being disrupted at a time when people need them more, daily operations altered, and budgets stretched by increased demand for services and the cancellation of revenue-generating events \u2013 all in a context of tremendous and extraordinary uncertainty. The challenges are even greater for those providing direct services to people at the highest risk due to the virus itself and the economic impacts we are already seeing.<\/p>\n<p>Like you, this community is at the heart of everything we care about. In these anxious times, we want to reaffirm our commitment to you and your work. Your priorities may be shifting as you determine how best to provide for communities, and the path to meet your original program goals may no longer be clear. While we know you remain deeply committed to continuing your work, we also realize that during this crisis it may not be realistic to meet the project goals you once expected to achieve. Please know, we understand and will prioritize flexibility regarding reporting.<\/p>\n<p>In recognition of the challenges you are facing now and those that will be posed to our region in the days and weeks ahead, many of us have joined together and with others to contribute to a fund as one way to support those impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.<\/p>\n<p>The Chicago Community COVID-19 Response Fund will provide flexible resources to community-based organizations across the Metropolitan Chicago region to supply essential aid to the individuals and households who are most impacted by the pandemic. Those resources currently include access to emergency food and basic supplies, rent and mortgage assistance and utility assistance. Learn more at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chicagocovid19responsefund.org\/\">https:\/\/www.chicagocovid19responsefund.org\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We will continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19 in our community by listening to you to understand your experience and the experiences of those you serve. We are heartened by the way organizations across our region are rising to this challenge and are committed to doing our part to help ensure this critical work continues.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for your leadership and partnership in helping our city weather this crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p>Iris Krieg, Executive Director<\/p>\n<p><strong>Albert Pick, Jr. Fund<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Joel M.
