The Noble Network of Charter Schools announced that it has been awarded a 2018 Diamond Project grant, which is designed to help improve youth baseball and softball fields and facilities across Chicago’s neighborhoods. The grant is sponsored by Cubs Charities. Noble will use the funds made available by the grant to renovate the fields at Hermosa Park, which services Noble’s Pritzker College Prep campus as well as the greater community. In cooperation with the Chicago Park District and consistent with Noble’s commitment to health, fitness, and athletics, Noble will bring infield improvements to the baseball and softball diamonds to a park facility in need of significant capital investment. Ultimately, this project will create a place that provides youth and community members with additional options to become physically active and a place that builds a sense of pride for the Hermosa community. This Cubs Grant is the first commitment secured towards Noble’s ongoing fundraising efforts to help improve public athletic facilities for use by Noble students and the surrounding community throughout Chicago.
