Organization Description
Glenwood Academy is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, private residential education community for children in grades 2 - 8 that are academically capable but come from challenging circumstances. Glenwood educates more than 150 students on a campus located in Glenwood, Ill., about 35 miles south of Chicago. Nearly 100% of our children live below or at the poverty line and 92% of our children are from single-parent households.

Glenwood Academy serves students by providing individualized instruction with small class sizes during the school day and a safe and supportive residential community to call home Sunday evening through Friday afternoon. Our students benefit from a structured and nurturing environment enabling them to focus and take advantage of academic and extracurricular opportunities to better their futures.
