Opening doors to opportunity is the central

theme of Northwestern Settlement’s operations.

The bedrock of American society is the notion

that everyone has equal opportunity to succeed.

But for low-income families and individuals,

any number of challenges can undermine

the realization of a life of stability and self-

determination.

Each of us has a history and a story. Most

of us only have to go back two or three

generations to find our immigrant ancestors

living in poverty. Somewhere along the way

we were given opportunity. Opportunity to

improve our circumstances. Opportunity to

become educated. Opportunity to have solid

jobs and careers. Opportunity to raise our

families comfortably and safely, passing on the

benefits that accrued to us. Clubs, schools,

places of worship, and settlement houses have

been, and continue to be, the community-

based institutions that open doors to these

opportunities.

To provide the Settlement’s children and

families these opportunities, we remain

true to the founding settlement house spirit

of flexibility and responsiveness. We’re

innovators and risk takers, having led the way

in community health, camping for inner-city

youth, and most recently the charter school

movement to reform public education. We

seize opportunity to serve.

Our sustained success is based on visionary

leadership, thoughtful and continuously

innovative program development, cost-effective

service delivery, and strategic programming

partnerships. Year after year, our supporters,

partners and volunteers reaffirm their

commitment to Northwestern Settlement. In

the nearly 125 years since our founding, we have

had a remarkably stable board of directors,

only three executive leaders, and an incredibly

dedicated and supportive network of auxiliary

boards.

There are few organizations with such a

rich history and diverse set of activities and

programs that bring a broad base of expertise,

A MESSAGE FROM

THE PRESIDENT

We’re innovators and risk takers,

having led the way in community health, camping for inner-city youth, and

most recently the charter school movement

to reform public education.

We seize opportunity to serve.

“ “interest and dedication to the uniquely

American defined purpose: to have each

generation build upon the past for a more

secured and successful future. We all have a

role to play in supporting and contributing to

this purpose and vision, and together we have

the power to make enormous and positive

lasting change.

I hope you will join us in this work.

Sincerely,

Ron Manderschied

President

Each year, the Settlement prepares 78 children for Kindergarten through our preschool. Our site is accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children, and has a Gold Circle of Quality from ExceleRate Illinois.

A majority of preschool students go on to attend Rowe Elementary charter school. Rowe served nearly 700 scholars in grades K-7 during the

INVESTING IN

YOUTH2014-15 school year, and for two consecutive years has been named a Level 1+ school by Chicago Public Schools, the highest quality rating available.

Over 200 Rowe scholars receive after-school programming provided by the Settlement, giving them a safe haven after dismissal during the school year, and all day during the summer.

EMERGENCY SERVICES PROGRAM

The Settlement provides community families with immediate assistance for short term needs, as well as inspiration for the future. Our Emergency Services Program operates a year-round food pantry, with more weekly hours of operation than any other in our neighborhood. We help 2,500 families by distributing over 400,000 pounds of food, 12,000 pounds of clothing, as well as toiletries, baby needs, and household furnishings.

House In The Wood is the Settlement’s camp in Delavan, WI, providing over 400 Chicago youth with a safe summer camp experience far removed from urban violence. Hundreds of Rowe scholars attend camp each spring and fall for hands-on environmental education lessons, directly tied to in-class science programming.

ENGAGING THE

ADVENTURE STAGE CHICAGO

AMERICORPS PROJECT YES!

GOLDEN AGERS

Adventure Stage Chicago is the Midwest’s only theater aimed at middle school audiences, and we engaged 9,204 individuals through the productions, education, and mentorship last season.

Project YES! is the Settlement’s AmeriCorps program. In 2014-15, we worked with 28 recent

community-minded college graduates, connecting them with youth in and around our West Town neighborhood. Through their own site work and by mobilizing 526 volunteers at 42 events, members contributed over 50,000 hours of service to the community. Members also provided fun opportunities for senior citizens in our Golden Agers club to socialize.

CELEBRATING THE LIFE OF

MR. JOHN WELKE

Northwestern Settlement remembers

Mr. John Welke, who passed away on

February 6, 2015. John was the longest-

serving Settlement staff member where

he ran the woodshop program for

over 50 years – a lifetime in service

to his community. He lived his

entire life in the house across the

alley from the Settlement House.

Prior to joining the Settlement, John was a

carpenter who worked on the Pullman Cars, when

trains still had beautiful wood interiors. He made a

real difference in the lives of thousands of children

over the years, teaching them carpentry skills, but

even more importantly offering guidance. He was a

father figure, a big brother, and a mentor to children

and young adults in our community. His memory will

live on through the many lives he touched.

THANK YOUTO THOSE WHO HAVE GIVEN THEIR TIME, RESOURCES,

AND HEARTS TO OUR INCREDIBLE CAUSE. IT IS BECAUSE

OF YOU THAT WE GET TO ACCOMPLISH ALL THAT WE DO.
