IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Food Lab Chicago Initially, GCI, and its collaborators'(South Shore Chamber of Commerce, FoodLab Detroit, and Association for Enterprise Opportunity) goal was to improve local restauranters. However, the recent March 2020 COVID-19 economic downturn caused 7 restaurant closures and decreased restaurant sales. GCI pivoted the direction of the program. The new goal is to stabilize the existing food-based businesses. All restaurants have remained open through 2020 and the average sales increased by 73%.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Enhance Greater Chatham's Housing BrandGreater Chathams housing brand identity was enhanced through Investors Summits, Housing Trolley Tours, School Guides, and Street Activation Events. This has lead to GCI having 25% more house flippers than neighboring communities which accelerates the upgrading of homes and in turn makes the properties more attractive to home buyers. GCI utilizes down-payment assistance subsidy programs to attract more home buyers. The confluence of these activities helped increase the single-family sales prices by 40% compared to 16% for some of the south side peer neighborhoods.
