The Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame is both a historic event and an exhibit. Through the Hall of Fame, residents of Chicago and the world are made aware of the contributions of Chicago's lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender communities and the communities' efforts to eradicate homophobic bias and discrimination. With the support of the City of Chicago Commission on Human Relations, the Advisory Council on Gay and Lesbian Issues (later the Advisory Council on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Issues) established the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame in June 1991. The inaugural induction ceremony took place during Gay and Lesbian Pride Week at City Hall, hosted by Mayor Richard M. Daley. This was the first event of its kind in the country. The Hall of Fame recognizes the volunteer and professional achievements of LGBT people, their organizations, and their friends, as well as their contributions to the LGBT communities and to the city of Chicago. This is a unique tribute to dedicated individuals and organizations whose services have improved the quality of life for all of Chicago's citizens. Induction into the Hall of Fame symbolizes that the recipient either has made a contribution with far-reaching effects on the quality of life for Chicago's lesbian and gay community or the city of Chicago, or has made a significant long-term contribution to the well-being of Chicago's LGBT communities. The Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame is privately funded through generous donations from individuals, businesses, and organizations. Staff support is provided by volunteers. The Hall of Fame is now overseen by Friends of the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame, a 501(c)3 not-for-profit corporation, in cooperation with the City of Chicago.

Originally known as CCPA Musicians in Action, Sharing Notes was founded by Allegra Montanari in January of 2012. Now supported by the Chicago College of Performing Arts and local Chicagoans, the program partners charitable musicians with hospitals and organizations that are in need of positive cultural experiences. Currently, Sharing Notes provides live music to the following venues: -Northwestern Memorial's Prentice Women's Hospital, River North Since April of 2012, Sharing Notes has filled Prentice's three oncology floors with live popular, classical, and jazz music in casual solo and chamber music settings. Patients, visitors, and staff can either stop into a common room or enjoy the performances from the comfort of their own rooms as musicians play in the hallways. -La Rabida Children's Hospital, South Side After a successful six months of performing at Prentice, it became clear that music was something very much needed in Chicago hospitals. Consequently, Sharing Notes turned to the bright campus, caring ChildLife staff, and completely new demographic of La Rabida in October of 2012. The patients, who range from infant to teen, have various ailments that include burn injuries, developmental delays, and asthma, but also come with amazing strength and big personalities! At La Rabida, Sharing Notes musicians focus on engaging musical performances and activities, allowing both parties to do what they do best: play! -Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital, River North The newest Sharing Notes partnership brings musicians to perform for lunchtime concerts at the beautiful Crown Sky Garden of the Lurie Children's Hospital. Musicians make soothing, fun and often interactive music for hospital staff, ambulatory patients and visitors in the Garden. As the number of people touched by Sharing Notes increases, the program continues to focus on serving the community by creating unique performance opportunities that bring music off the stage to open both ears and hearts.

Magen Tzedek has been hailed as a uniquely comprehensive set of principles. Unlike certifications such as Fairtrade, which examine a company in one area of concern (e.g. labor), Magen Tzedek’s scope includes workers’ wages and benefits, including fair pay, health care, sick leave, a safe workplace; humane treatment of animals; environmental impact, recycling, energy consumption and carbon and water footprint; food safety and product traceability; and corporate transparency.

At the heartland of the United States, the Midwest is known for traditional values, enduring stability and tremendous opportunities. Midwesterners have won the respect of the nation for their ability to find a better way. One of the Midwest’s hidden treasures is its Brahma Kumaris meditation centers. The Brahma Kumaris contribute spiritual resources to the Midwesterner's efforts to make life work better both for the individual and the collective. These oases of peace share meditative tools for self transformation. People are welcome to visit the Brahma Kumaris centers and experiment with a higher level of consciousness called soul consciousness. From a spiritual perspective, individuals are viewed as souls and humankind as one family. We offer instruction in Raja Yoga meditation and programs for self development including positive thinking and inner leadership. We advocate and practice peace, integrity and respect for all. These values allow us to create and nurture kindness, trust and harmony in our communities. There are currently Brahma Kumaris activities in three Midwest states: Illinois, Michigan, and Ohio. The hub of Midwest service is our meditation center in Chicago.
