What a wonderful move! Frances Messano, I'm so excited that your leadership will continue to shine @NSVF.

The Sankofa Wellness Village promises to significantly advance the lives and livelihoods of Chicago's West Side citizens. I applaud the team who created this vision, and for Pritzker Traubert Foundation and team for awarding #ChicagoPrize to this incredible effort.

The new multi-dimensional home of Belmont-Cragin Elementary School is evidence of what wonderful things can happen when you set a bold vision and work in partnership with a whole community to bring it to life. Congratulations to Stacy Stewart Jorge Melgar and the whole team!
