- ORT Chicago
The Chicagoland Jewish community is one of the most vibrant, diverse and philanthropic in the country, located in an area that serves as a strong hub for innovation, technology and education. ORT Chicago, currently based in Northbrook, IL, operates as a regional office for ORT America, the leading fundraising organization for World ORT. Working in coordination with ORT America’s main office in New York, ORT Chicago helps collect contributions for ORT’s growing global network of schools and programs in 35 countries and impacts over 300,000 students annually. This year ORT Chicago is focused on raising funds to support girls and women in STEM. There is a significant gender gap in science, technology, engineering and math – 75% of all STEM jobs are held by men. ORT is working to level the playing field, empowering girls to pursue their dreams through access to leading STEM education.
