Directing Energy Savings Back to Vital Community Organizations
Abstract
There are close to 30,000 active 501(c)(3) public charities in the Chicago metropolitan area1. These nonprofit organizations include social service agencies that provide critical healthcare, rehabilitation, food, and shelter for their communities’ most at-risk populations such as youth, elderly, and individuals with disabilities. This sector also includes more than 1,600 licensed childcare centers with the capacity to serve more than 135,000 children annually. When you think of social safety nets, these community resources are on the front lines.
