The Chicago Mennonite Learning Center directs almost all of its recent giving to a single provider network serving the Chicago area, funding program and youth-focused services rather than capital or scholarships. Grants are intended as operating and program support for community-facing programs (notably youth programming) run under the New Life Centers name. The foundation appears mission-focused and regionally targeted despite being based in Goshen, IN.
Highly concentrated: three grants totaling $140,000 all to variants of New Life Centers, including repeat and tiered awards; relatively large, unrestricted program support rather than many small, diverse grants.
