"I thank God for you [Annissa Lambirth-Garrett, Executive Director] always pleasant and genuinely concerned, willing to assist even when you're busy. You are appreciated. Thank you for all you do."

I have been a partner in the Trust Fund for 22-years now, since the very beginning, and I am so happy with this partnership... We have two families that are homeless right now that are moving into this [CLIHTF] property, but this renovation would not have been possible if I didn't have the Trust Fund as a partner, so I would have that stability.

"Without you guys [CLIHTF], I don't know where me and my family would be right now... I want to give a very special shout out to Annissa, you are my guardian angel, you are beautiful inside and out, and I love you, and I never even met you... you are amazing, CLIHTF is amazing."

"We have worked with the Chicago Low Income Housing Trust Fund for over 6 years. In that time we have expanded our relationship and plan on continuing to do so. Everyone at the CLIHTF has been easy to work with and responsive to our needs."

Instilling Trust

As the COVID-19 virus continues to impact our country, CLIHTF has shifted to a fully remote work environment. Our employees have settled into their new routines, virtual meetings are happening, and business continues to function at its highest level of efficiency. Even though CLIHTF has typically functioned in a traditional office environment, we were pleased with how quickly we were able to transition to remote work. This was due to the incredible efforts of our IT staff and all of our employees embracing the unexpected and urgent change. 

As we all navigate these uncertain times, we appreciate your continued business.
