CLIHTF 2026 Fundraising Drive

CLIHTF’s 2026 Fundraising Drive marks an exciting lead-up to our 2026 Annual Gala and builds momentum for a celebration of impact, partnership, and purpose. This campaign is about more than reaching a dollar goal. It is about coming together as a community to invest in housing stability for Chicago residents who need it most. Every contribution helps support safe, affordable housing and strengthens the resources that allow individuals and families to remain rooted in their homes and neighborhoods.

As we count down to the 2026 Annual Gala, this fundraising effort gives supporters, partners, and friends of CLIHTF a chance to be part of that momentum right now. Each gift moves us closer to our goal and helps expand the reach of our mission across the city. With your support, the 2026 Fundraising Drive will not only help power a meaningful Gala season, but also create lasting impact for Chicagoans by advancing access to stable, affordable housing.

May Landlord of the Month

Our May Landlord of the Month, Audrey Pierce, is a powerful example of what it means to show up with heart, urgency, and unwavering commitment. Over the Easter holiday weekend, when many would understandably be offline, Audrey stepped in without hesitation to help house a family in need. Her willingness to act quickly on a day when options are limited and challenges are heightened made all the difference for a household facing uncertainty. What makes Audrey stand out is not just what she did, but how she did it. She approaches her role with a deep sense of responsibility and compassion, recognizing that housing is more than a transaction. It’s stability, dignity, and peace of mind.

This is exactly the spirit we aim to cultivate among our landlords: people who lead with empathy, act with purpose, and go the extra mile when it matters most. Audrey consistently demonstrates the kind of responsiveness and care that strengthens our entire network, reminding us that impactful housing work often happens in critical, behind-the-scenes moments. We are proud to recognize her as a standout partner and a true reflection of the values we hold at the CLIHTF.
