DIFFA/Chicago’s grant making tradition has been able to support emerging programs and ideas that reflect a unique or innovative approach to a problem. We continue to seek requests where public support and other philanthropy (including an organization’s own fundraising capacity) is not otherwise available, and where DIFFA/Chicago funds can be appropriately positioned to expand and diversify the funding efforts of an organization. Below is a listing of the diverse organizations granted in 2007 and their respective categories of granting:
