FIRST EMAIL On January 25, GCM Grosvenor volunteers worked hard to serve Robeson High School, located in the Englewood neighborhood. Check out more information on this neighborhood by viewing the attached neighborhood guide. Schools often serve as the center of community life and safe havens within communities, particularly those struggling with violence. The fresh coats of paint you provided to classrooms, new benches you built, and the canvas murals you created will brighten up the overall environment. According to The Center for Disease Control, the design of the school environment can reduce fear and increase safety by creating a warm and welcoming environment, fostering a sense of physical and social order, and sending positive messages to students. Your support and service was greatly appreciated by the staff and students. On behalf of Chicago Cares, thank you! It was a pleasure serving alongside you all.

VOLUNTEER FEEDBACK BY THE NUMBERS 96% of volunteers said they re proud of Uptake and its commitment to service It was a great way to help those in need Here s a sampling of feedback from volunteers about what they liked best about the day: Going to a part of the city that I would have never gone to on my own along with being greeted by the kids from the school. Connecting with a new community. Meeting the students and finding out what they are most interested in. I enjoyed coming into contact with a community that I wouldn't ordinarily interact with. The morning presentation where the Keep in touch community sort of presented itself was really great. I loved being able to work with the kids in the community. We had hilarious conversations and it was awesome to see them come in to volunteer on their day off. It was a great way to help those in need! Those kids were a blast to hang out with and learn more about. You re part of Chicago Cares community and we want to keep in touch!
