Holsten Human Capital Development (HHCD) Presents 2018 Community Sustainability Awards

Jackie Taylor Holsten, Founder & Chair of the Board of HHCD (not for profit), recently

announced the recipients of the 2018 Community Sustainability Awards to be held Tuesday,

September 25, 2018 in Kasbeer Hall at the Corboy Law Center of Loyola University on East

Pearson Street.

“For the past eight years, HHCD has honored individuals who are committed to encouraging, guiding and providing support to the communities and families we serve, while instilling the never-give-up attitude needed to succeed.

This year, we have chosen to honor two groups: those that helped us grow through

art and architecture, and residents who have given time or talent to help others while demonstrating what community means” comments Jackie Holsten.

Ms. Holsten continues, “In 2018, we are honoring architects Chris Lee, Pete Landon, and Doug Farr – and art salon owner Laurie Glenn -- each of whom has been instrumental in the growth of our not-for-profit and in the development of the low-income communities we serve.” Previous honorees have included Gene Jones (CHA), John Markowski (Community Investment Corporation) and Julia Stasch (MacArthur Foundation).

HHCD works daily to empower clients to reach personal goals to improve their lives

and their communities.
