Supported by the Field Foundations Media and Storytelling grant, the project brought together two cohorts of local students and recipients of Evanstons historic reparations initiative to share, document, and preserve their stories. At its heart, this program fostered meaningful relationships across generations. Participants learned interviewing techniques and oral history practices while connecting through shared experiences and histories.Shorefront Legacy Center published an inaugural publication summarizing the 2024 Intergenerational Interview Project activities and outcomes, and a second publication is being planned. 62288 Archive & Collection:Shorefront Legacy Center promotes understanding of Black history on Chicagos suburban North Shore. It is an Evanston-based community archive, library, educational resource, and research center. The archival and library collections capture some of the history of African American activists, artists, leaders, politicians, and others who lived dynamic, rich lives in the North Shore. The material highlights the African American presence, experience, and impact.Shorefront Legacy Center collects and preserves the history through its living, community archive. Artifacts are collected in many forms, including personal items, articles, photographs, oral histories, digital media, and more. Shorefront Legacy Center is open to all researchers and the general public. Staff welcome inquiries regarding the archive's collections and information related to Black life in Evanston and Chicago's North Shore. For researchers who need assistance finding relevant materials on a particular research topic or to meet a specific information need, research consultation appointments are available. 22749 Young Learners:The goal of the Young Learners is to link young people, ages 10-14 with individuals in the community who have a wealth of knowledge about the history and culture of Evanstons African American community. During a six-month program, 4-8 students, meeting once a week are mentored on how to research, document, collect, preserve, and display their communitys history.The curriculum includes field trips to local historical societies and cultural museums, and presentations from local historians, genealogists, storytellers, sociologist, and documentary photographers. The project culminates with a Legacy Fair in which community residents brought personal photographs depicting life in Evanston in different decades. In this event, Shorefront assistants copy the photographs, conduct oral histories, and then take professional photographs to provide a contemporary component for future exhibitions. 181077 true true false false false false false false false false false false false true true true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 27 0 true 1 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 7 7 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true false false false IL X LAURICE BELL 8478647467 2214 RIDGE AVE EVANSTON IL 60201 LAURICE BELL Executive Dir. 60.00 0.00 X 80000 0 9744 ANGELA JOUBERT JAMES President 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 JOSH CHERNOFF Treasurer 20.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 ANN K ADAMS Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 MICHELLE CASWELL Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 NICOLE PARKER Director 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 CHARLES HAWKINS Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SCHENITA STEWART Director 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 80000 9744 0 false false false 0 5800 944666 950466 PROGRAM FEES 900099 29246 29246 29246 17590 17590 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 MISCELLANEOUS INCOME 900099 2382 2382 2382 999684 31628 17590 X 0 0 0 0 89744 65513 17949 6282 0 0 0 118 87 23 8 6952 5074 1391 487 0 172 65 107 4550 250 4300 0 0 0 127312 78259 32045 17008 1248 1248 0 5081 5081 0 8520 5782 2184 554 430 345 85 0 5166 4421 629 116 0 0 0 1866 1866 Printing and Publications 16485 13543 300 2642 SPONSORSHIPS 4031 150 3881 Staff Development 3725 3725 OFFICE EQUIPMENT 3312 2794 518 9893 4794 5009 90 288605 181077 80341 27187 2214 137984 258207 96880 133000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 75 632679 260496 1000543 9755 2037 12500 2037 22255 X 258459 300288 678000 258459 978288 260496 1000543 711079 8750 X false true X true false X 162064 37466 67777 195779 950466 1413552 29246 29246 0 0 0 162064 37466 67777 195779 979712 1442798 0 0 1442798 11802 17590 29392 0 11802 17590 29392 0 2382 2382 162064 37466 67777 207581 999684 1474572 0.97850 0.97680 0.01990 0.02320 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED ASSETS HELD BY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION 632679 632679 REFUNDABLE ADVANCE - GOVERNMENT 12500 12500 X 1021764 22080 22080 999684 999684 310685 22080 22080 288605 288605 Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Organization is recognized as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and is exempt from federal and State income taxes on related income. In addition, the Organization has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) not to be a private foundation within the meaning of section 509(a) of the IRC. The Organization had no unrelated business income during fiscal year 2024, therefore, no provision for federal or State income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements.The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. This requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Organizations tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are more likely than not of being sustained when challenged or when examined by the applicable tax authority. For the year ended December 31, 2024, management has determined that there were no material uncertain tax positions.
