2017 ANNUAL REPORT
it takes a cityASM_2017AR_v9c.indd 2 8/31/18 2:21 PM
Meet Victor
Victor Lowery (shown on the cover)
always dreamed of finishing high
school and going on to college, but
a stray bullet almost left his hopes
in disarray. Although Victor was
temporarily paralyzed, he never lost
his determination to return to the
classroom and graduate with his peers.
He is now a freshman at Indiana State
University. Last summer, he joined
the After School Matters Peacemakers
program at Urban Prep Academy’s
Englewood Campus to help make his
community a safer place for other
young people to learn, grow, and thrive.
“I never thought I would be promoting
peace. You don’t know how much you
matter until you speak up. You never
know how many people you can impact
or make better. So much is possible.”
— Victor Lowery
It takes a city—
to motivate our young people,
to inspire a movement,
to invest in our collective future,
to stop the violence,
to change the narrative,
to show our teens they matter.
It takes you.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD CHAIR & CEO
Dear friends & supporters,
Chicago is a special place. Chicagoans work hard. Chicagoans
collaborate. And Chicagoans give back. We take great pride in
this citywide character. It is this very character—embodied by our
Founder, Maggie Daley—that created After School Matters.
As we have grown over the past 27 years, our devoted
community—of supporters, partners, and leaders—has also
grown and now comes from all corners of the city and beyond,
spanning racial and ethnic backgrounds, socioeconomic levels,
beliefs, disciplines, and more. That beautiful diversity is directly
reflected in the voices of our teens. And what unites us is a steadfast
commitment to these incredible young people—to showcasing their
strengths, and in turn, to building the bright future our city deserves.
We are proud to present this annual report of After School Matters’
investment in Chicago teens. In these pages, you will see and hear
from individuals throughout our community. These voices—of teens,
alumni, parents, instructors, donors, volunteers, and more—tell you
what we believe at our core: it takes a city to make sure our teens
know they matter.
Sadly, too many of Chicago’s communities and families continue
to suffer—from violence, under-investment, and a sense that no
one is listening. These challenges fall hardest on our youth. This
past year, After School Matters provided more than 26,000 after-
school and summer opportunities for Chicago teens to experience
transformational growth at safe havens throughout the city. No
other organization offers these benefits to under-resourced teens
at such scale. Yet thousands more teens continue to apply for After
School Matters than we have capacity to serve. Chicago can only
fulfill its potential once we embrace, support, and listen to the next
generation of leaders.
We know our programs work. And we have big plans underway to
close the opportunity gap, stop the violence, and reach more teens.
But it is only with our city’s full-hearted support that we can make
this happen. Thank you for doing your part.

inspiring positivityThis past summer, After School Matters, in partnership with
Chicago CRED (Emerson Collective) and Civic Leadership
Foundation, created a new opportunity for 1,100 teens
throughout Chicago to promote peace in their communities.
This initiative, known as Peacemakers, helps teens spread
a message of unity, and empowers others to become positive
change agents throughout Chicago and build a brighter
future for all of us.

“This program created
a lot of opportunities,
not just for the
summer, but for the
future. And as far
as promoting peace,
it registers in your
mind and when you
find yourself in those
situations you know
what to do. I feel like
that’s a great thing and
more people should
experience it.”

promoting inclusionAfter School Matters is committed to providing opportunities
for all Chicago teens—inclusive of learning styles, abilities,
or needs. We believe all young people can benefit from the
mentorship, skill building, and exploration that happens in our
programs. By providing accommodations that break down
barriers to entry and offering programs designed specifically
for diverse learners, we are able to expand our reach and
include more teens in our life-changing programs.

motivating youthOver the past few NBA seasons, the Chicago Bulls have
increased their support of our teens throughout Chicago, but
more specifically to the young men in Humboldt Park at our
Crossover program who have dreams of taking their game
to the next level. The Bulls recognized Coach John Latorre,
Director of Crossover, as their Junior NBA Coach of the Year.
Coach John has been an instructor and mentor with After
School Matters since 2014, and he truly embodies our mission.

providing mentorshipVolunteers make a huge impact in the lives of our young people.
Since 2009, local chocolate manufacturer, Barry Callebaut,
has invested in Chicago’s teens in numerous ways that include
monetary and in-kind support, and volunteerism. With support
from Barry Callebaut staff, Seema Kedia and Angie Sanchez,
each year the company has opened their offices to lead
resume writing and interview workshops for our teens.
2,508 total hours were contributed
by our volunteers last year.

investing in our teensWith one of the most generous acts in After School Matters
history, Karyn Lutz and her family gifted our teens their own
space to find their futures. The building, located at 3435 N.
Cicero Avenue in the Belmont Cragin neighborhood, is where
Karyn’s late husband, Michael, built his business and career.
In 2016, the Lutz Family donated the space to After School
Matters. And after a year of teen-informed development and
construction, it now serves as a permanent testament to the
family’s generosity.
Karyn, a champion for youth, said during the grand opening
ceremony, “To all the teens who walk through these brand new
doors, be safe, be happy, and be creative. But most of all, live
your own dream.”
The Michael and Karyn Lutz Center for After School Matters
is a world-class facility, designed for teens, and serves as a
model for bringing teen-focused programming into more city
neighborhoods. The 36,000-square-foot renovated building
is already providing programs for more than 1,500 teens
each year.

know there are people
out there who believe
we deserve our own
space to learn and
grow. I’m so grateful
for this beautiful
building. It has already
helped me, and I know
it’s going to help so
many more teens in
this community.”
