Local Organizations

FamilyFarmed is a Chicago-based non-profit committed to expanding the production, marketing and distribution of locally grown sustainable food. We’ve trained more than 12,500 farmers to grow their markets - and we can help you, too.

Chicago Bird Collision Monitors (CBCM) is an all-volunteer conservation project dedicated to the protection of migratory birds through rescue, advocacy and outreach. We work to protect and recover migratory birds that are killed and injured in the downtown Chicago area each spring and fall migration—and we need your help.

Participate in bird rescue, bird transport, public outreach, or fundraising. Previous experience with birds is not required. All that you need is a sincere desire to help birds that have come into harm's way.

We have tasked ourselves with the protection, enhancement, restoration, and – in urban areas – expansion of our shared natural environment.

This includes public advocacy at all governmental levels, outreach to all environmental organizations, public education at community events, and advocacy for and supervision of State of California mandated public coastal access and easements.

Increasingly, Mother Nature needs representation. Someone has to stand up for the environment when no one else will.
