Grantmaking Footprint CMF is a private health conversion foundation serving the western suburbs of Chicago with a history of distributing over 80 million in grants across Cook and DuPage counties. This indicates strong regional presence, potential for local nonprofit partnerships, and a familiarity with healthcare-related community programs.

Leadership Transition Recent leadership appointment of Charlie Corrigan as President and CEO signals strategic shifts and potential new funding directions or program focus. This offers an opening to align proposals with the new leadership’s priorities and initiatives.

Strategic Partnerships Active collaboration with schools, health systems, and community organizations (e.g., Nazareth Academy, AdventHealth Medical Group, Youth Crossroads, Healthy Communities Institute) demonstrates appetite for joint programs and data-driven community health initiatives that could be expanded with scalable partnerships.

Data and Tech Stack CMF has invested in data and web capabilities (Healthy Communities Institute platform, WordPress-based site, JSON-LD, RSS, analytics-friendly tech) which suggests a receptiveness to tech-enabled program evaluation, impact reporting, and digital engagement strategies for grant monitoring.

Funding Readiness With annual revenue estimated at 10–25 million and a track record of multi-million-dollar grantmaking, CMF is a well-capitalized partner for program grants, capacity-building sponsorships, and targeted health initiatives in the western suburbs.
