Chicago Beyond is a national philanthropic organization that addresses systemic inequity by backing solutions led by those closest to the issues. Since its inception in 2016, Chicago Beyond has invested more than $65 million in over 200 individuals and organizations in support of its mission. Because there is no single barrier to equity, Chicago Beyond engages in opportunities across philanthropy, justice, health, and beyond.

In 2023, Chicago Beyond teamed up with Lever for Change to combat unconscious bias in decision-making, leveraging Chicago Beyond’s Mirror Tool to help in philanthropic funding processes.
