Chicago Youth Centers is Chicago’s largest independent, locally based, multi-site youth services organization, dedicated to improving the lives of low-income, at-risk children and teens through a variety of innovative and effective programs with neighborhood centers on the south and west sides of Chicago.   The South Shore located Rebecca K Crown Center received a grant to renovate their outdated and non ADA compliant entry from Designs 4 Dignity, a design based nonprofit that transforms existing non-profit spaces through pro bono design services and in-kind donations.   Partnering with architects from LATENT DESIGN, and design build team ICON MODERN, the Rebecca K Crown Center entry now reflects the youthful and innovative programming offered through an entry renovation that repurposes reclaimed wood from Rebuilding Exchange.  The design team coordinated and participated in volunteer workdays to keep the two-week project on time and under the $20,000 construction budget.  The final design improves lines of sight to the interior hallways and exterior entry, increases seating for families and children, improves traffic flows and eliminates bottlenecks from the gymnasium adjacent to the entry while incorporating key inspirational elements core to the CYC mission and center identity; youth created mosaic, trophy case and fish tank.

Creative Customer Project
After several trips to the RX, Godfrey put all the treasures he purchased together to complete his bathroom renovation.  The live edge shelf he purchased here was coated several times with teak oil and  is shedding water nicely.  It is lit underneath with LED lights.  The stem of the light and chrome base that he purchased at the RX was creatively up-cycled by adding a shade made our of a bird feeder and some beach glass. Well done Godfrey!

Each summer, the Firebelly Design studio closes for 10 days at the end of June to hold their  annual Camp Firebelly. Students and recent graduates apply to take part, live at the studio and work with the Firebelly team tackling social issues and causes that can be aided through good design and focused efforts.

Our friends at  Camp Firebelly recently completed a creative side project constructing an alphabet as part of the You Are Beautiful campaign. With guidance from the You Are Beautiful crew, materials, space and build time offered from Rebuilding Exchange, each “camper” and Firebelly team member muscled up to construct one letter. The two days spent planning, learning and making yielded gorgeous results that will be installed in the public space.

Firebelly Design is responsible for all of our fantastic new branding here at the RX and we are proud and thankful to work together with them to spread such a positive message.  Keep up the good work Firebelly!!!
