Our Mission
We’re here to empower and support the unique needs of low-income youth, children, adults, veterans, immigrants, and seniors in our community through education and social services.
Our Vision
To help individuals and families navigate through life challenges and strengthen and empowered them to live their best lives!
Our Goal
We realized early on that before we can truly help the students in our programs, we must reach out to the students parents.
Our goal is to engage 1000 new families each year to move from poverty to self-sufficiency, to promote good mental and physical health to the community, to encourage renters to become homeowners, and ignite individuals to become active citizens of their communities and instilling a sense of responsibility.
What we do
For all who call Adell Foundation home, we offer safe surroundings where individuals can explore, discover, and create stable families and futures.
Our Purpose
We utilize our Principles of Personal Development Coaching for youth and adults which include:
• Positive Thinking and Language
• Peaceful Conflict Resolution
• Responsible Decision Making
We partner with other organizations and nonprofits to assist families to design their plan toward a strong family unit and self-sufficiency.
What we offer through our programs:
Food Insecurity prevention programs such as Food Talk, Cooking Matters, Back Yard Garden program, and Farm to Table Plant-based diet programs.
We also host weekly and monthly programing listed below:
Parent Support Groups
Adult Basic Education (ABE) Workshops
Job Readiness Training
Homeownership Programs
Home Economics Classes
Financial Literacy Programs
illinois neighborhood revitalization program
The Adell Foundation was awarded participation in the Wells Fargo Home Donation Program. Once the home is donated we work with donors to raise funds to renovate the homes for participants in our transitional housing program or home ownership sweat equity program.
Through our neighborhood revitalization work, we tailor our efforts by partnering locally with residents and community leaders and organizations to best address real concerns and improve the lives of the people who live there.
‘It's about creating affordable housing; it's about stabilizing and revitalizing the community" states our founder Nancy Crims.
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and improve conditions. Your generous donation will fund our mission.

COVID Community Recovery Program
Due to the COVID crisis the Adell Foundation has experienced a tremendous financial strain! The participation in our Family Matters food programs have increased over 200%! We started a summer meal program in eight host sites in Georgia. This at least makes sure youth in our host site areas (toddler-18 years old) can receive one hot meal and one take home cold breakfast Monday -Friday. Most families used their stimulus checks to catch up on rent and mortgage payments. Medicine and Food expenses have to be balance on limited budgets or are not paid at all. Children are hungry! Family Coaching to help restore family relationships as well as Financial Literacy Education to help individuals and families get back on track due to this COVID crisis. Won't you help us today. All donations are tax deductible.
