A Better Chicago distinguishes themselves in four ways:1. 100% impact: The board generously covers all of the operating expenses, so 100% of every dollar donated to A Better Chicago is invested in the region's most effective nonprofits. 2. Rigorous due diligence: They do the homework for you. A Better Chicago only funds the most effective and innovative nonprofits in the region. Further, they continually track the grantees' performance to help them improve and hold them accountable to delivering results. 3. Add value: Their investment goes beyond just dollars. They help the grantees tackle their biggest strategic and operational challenges by providing a variety of management support services. Examples include strategic planning, board development and communications assistance. 4. Engagement: Their transparent investment approach helps donors to understand where their support is going, and how it is making a difference.
