Please consider making a donation today!

Community members like you make Streeterville the vibrant, world-class neighborhood that it is. Our members, our volunteers, our government officials, and our stakeholders are the heart and soul of our Streeterville community. Together, we have accomplished much, but the work is not done. Year after year, SOAR strives to create the Streeterville that the community members envision and the only way we can continue to do so is with your continued support. We are true to our mission statement with every penny we spend going to preserving, promoting, and enhancing the quality of life and community.

We have advocated on community issues that affect your safety and wellbeing by working with our local government officials. We have maintained the community gardens at Lake Shore Park, we have published weekly community updates via SOAR Spotlight, we produced and managed the Farmers Market at the MCA Plaza, we have enhanced our social media presence, hosted informational forums and Town Hall meetings, social events and more. All of our activities rely on donations from members like you. Your donation not only strengthens the neighborhood, it helps to build and celebrate our wonderful community

We gratefully ask for your continued financial help to support our mission and our community efforts. SOAR is a 501(c)(3) and as a result has limited sources of income.  Your donation is tax-deductible to the extent of the law. We thank you for your unwavering support.

Many employers offer matching gift programs through which employers match charitable contributions made by employees to eligible charities.  Taking advantage of these programs is easy to do:

• Check with the Human Resources department to determine whether there is an employer matching gift program.
• Request donation guidelines and a list of qualifying charities.  Many employers will match donations given to tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organizations like SOAR.
• Follow the employer specified instructions for requesting a matching contribution.

Partnering with SOAR  gives you and your business exposure to over 1800 neighbors in the Streeterville community. We have a range of opportunities for you to review and decide which is best for your business. We will also be happy to schedule a meeting to discuss your current marketing plans and how SOAR might be part of those.
