About us

Empowering Change

Chicago Hope is dedicated to empowering the youth of Chicago through education and extracurricular activities. Our mission is to provide access to educational tools and opportunities that will guide young students towards a brighter future. Through initiatives within 'The Hub', we aim to equip these young minds with the skills and knowledge needed to excel both academically and in their communities. Join us in our journey to make a positive impact on the lives of the next generation and create a sustainable future for all.

Why ChiServes365?

We are initiating this movement to address the significant effects of local violence on our children’s lives. This concerning environment has restricted their opportunities for competitive sports and valuable interactions with their peers. It is essential that we establish a safe and nurturing space for our children, free from the influences of violence, enabling them to thrive and grow positively. Together, we will cultivate a community that empowers our children to participate in enriching experiences and pave the way for a brighter future.

Academics
We prepare our students for
college and life through excellent,
rigorous, and relevant classes. In the
2023-2024 school year, Hope offers
25+ standard courses, 10 AP level
courses, 5 languages, and a new
trades exposure class that will allow
students to explore career fields
that are growth-oriented.

Athletics
Chicago Hope Academy believes that a dynamic athletic program is vital to the
educational and spiritual development of the student. We create a safe, nurturing, and
competitive environment that enhances the students’ experience while also promoting
the Chicago Hope Academy mission of building the whole person in mind, body, and
spirit.

Spiritual Life
Our mission is to serve the students and the larger community through teaching the
values of selflessness, humility, discipline, and perseverance while developing Christian
character. Our spiritual goals of “know, love, serve” are introduced at the beginning of
the school year at our annual student retreat and continued throughout student’s high
school experience.

Hope Athletic Campus

Drawing 250,000 guests a year, the Hope Student Athletic Campus
welcomes people from every major highway and almost every zip code in
Illinois to watch athletes compete. More than 10,000 professional, Special
Olympic, collegiate, high school level, and youth athletes practice or
play at the Regional Athletic Hub. With each jump shot or corner kick, the
discipline of sports builds in participants a commitment to coaches,
teammates, and their own self-discipline and resilience. The act of
playing sports also allows the opportunity to improve their brain health,
help manage weight, reduce the risk of disease, and strengthen bones
and muscle.
