Bright Promises Foundation

Bright Promises Foundation has been serving the children of Illinois for 150+ years. Through research and discussion with leading children’s experts and organizations, Bright Promises Foundation identifies areas of emergent need where we can make a significant difference through strategic investment. Bright Promises Foundation and our partners develop and fund programs that are based in research and take an innovative approach to serving children, while monitoring outcomes and sharing knowledge of best practice. The issues we address change as children’s needs change, but our commitment to funding lasting solutions remains. Currently, Bright Promises Foundation is working to address such crucial issues as quality early childhood education, the impact of racial trauma on the lives of BIPOC children and youth, and the need for children to develop strong social and emotional life skills. We are dedicating our resources to supporting real and lasting solutions to these issues.
