The mission of the Children's Research Fund Junior Board (formerly known as Medical Research Junior Board Foundation) is to support pediatric medical research being conducted at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago and the Stanley Manne Children’s Research Institute.

The philosophy of The Sharon Home is founded on Jewish tradition, which encompasses respect for elders and responsibility for the welfare of others. This tradition take into account recognition of support that has been generously given by the community - past, present and future - and it is understood that it is the cornerstone of our achievements. We recognize that staff and volunteers are the most important resources. We understand that our mission can only be achieved through the combined efforts of staff, volunteers, clients and their caregivers. We provide an environment that encourages people to learn and flourish. We continuously strive to improve in the delivery of health and social services to the elderly and their caregivers. We provide care that emphasizes and capitalizes on the individual strengths of each client and family member and embraces the notion of autonomy.
