The mission of Cubs Charities is to mobilize the power of sport to champion youth, families, and communities. Cubs Charities achieves this through sports-based youth development and academic programming, investments in safe places to play, and strategic grantmaking. The vision of Cubs Charities is to be recognized locally and globally for its collective work to encourage the love of sport and contribute to a more unified and thriving Chicago, where all youth, families, and communities have an equal opportunity to achieve their highest potential both on and off the field.
