Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
Cultivate Collective partners with residents, community leaders, and institutional collaborators to develop place-based solutions that address the root causes of intergenerational poverty, environmental degradation, and disparities in health and opportunity. Through initiatives such as green workforce development, healthy food access programs, integrated youth and family services, and environmental resilience planning, the organization supports thriving, self-determined communities. Anchored in the southwest side of Chicago, Cultivate Collective ensures that community vision and voice shape every initiative, advancing equity and sustainability through shared leadership and long-term investment.
Activities or mission (Part I)
Cultivate Collective's mission is to unite education, wellness, sustainability, and economic vitality to create a resilient, equitable, and vibrant future for all. Cultivate Collective advances systems-level change by co-creating place-based ecosystems that address intergenerational poverty, environmental degradation, and systemic inequities. Through community-rooted initiatives, the organization fosters holistic well-being, self-determination, and climate resilience in historically disinvested communities.
-
Cultivate Collective funded capital improvements and operated community-based programming designed to connect residents to the Cultivate Collective campus in the LeClaire Courts neighborhood of Garfield Ridge. Programming supported community engagement, wellness, education, and access to shared neighborhood resources through events, partnerships, and campus activation initiatives.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
