   Comments: Jane Addams would've been all over the 99% movement! She was a resourceful innovator and fierce fighter for social justice. We can't let Hull House wither and die. it needs to be re-born to fight on for all of us!

   Comments: It is disgraceful that we can bail out banks and the auto industry and let this gem fall. As a country and a city our priorities are all out of whack. It's not Hull House that has failed...

    Comments: Jane Addams inspired me as a very young child when I read her biography. I am now a volunteer organizer helping people to speak out against the 1% control of our country. I owe my avocation and inspiration to Jane Addams. Save Hull House!

    Name: Lori Anne Brown on Jan 22, 2012

    Comments: Lori and I grew up next door to Frances Molinaro, a woman who grew up at Hull House as a child and went on to work there for 45 years. Dad used to send us over to play Chinese checkers with Frances (her favorite game) "to get educated." My dad was brilliant, and through all the stories that soft-spoken, tiny Italian woman shared with us, we learned more about the world and our responsibilities in it than any civics class could ever teach. We also got to hear first-hand an oral history of the Industrial Revolution; America as a melting pot; the Labor Movement; the Social Reform Movement; Chicago culture, society and politics ... you name it. (Frances poured tea for Eleanor Roosevelt, marched in the first Garment Workers' Strike next to Ellen Gates Starr and Harold L. Ickes, and was asked to run as the first female Chicago alderman, but opted for 1st Ward Committeeman instead - pretty cool!) The impact Hull House had on Chicago and our country, through advocacy and the millions it's served, is immeasurable. My Jane Addams! My Hull House! My Frances Molinaro who serve over 50 YEARS at Hull House. This should be a National Monument like the Statue of Liberty who harbored the poor, the weak, the hungry. Save Hull House. Chicago....Help! My best friend, Frances Molinaro, served the Hull House community her whole life. Please do not let the lives of those who lived to serve have their work lived in vein. Jane Addams & those who served with her made a difference & that needs to be estabished as a permanent beacon to us all. The stories! My dear Frances Molinaro made Benny Goodman practice his clarinet! She sewed ALL the draperies at Hull House, organized community affairs, marched the Hart, Schafner & Marx strikes....got those girls to come down out of their jobs & march!, served tea to Eleanor Roosevelt. My Lord, My Lord...SAVE HULL HOUSE.

    Comments: I first encountered Hull House as a force for neighborhood good when I moved to Chicago in the late '60s (and in the history books long before that). We have to save it for future generations as a symbol of what has made this city great.

    Name: Caryl Barnes on Jan 22, 2012

    Comments: Jane Addams has been an inspiration to me since I read a biography of her in about 1946. She continues to be an inspiration in many ways -- to social work practice, to high school and college programs in community service, even to the Jane Addams Tollway (formerly Northwest Tollway). Here in Minneapolis Augsburg College, a private Lutheran college with an amazing diversity of students, faculty and staff, developed a community service program specifically dedicated to her. Rockford College has a Jane Addams Peace Garden. I could go on practically forever. Jane Addams was and is a national treasure.

    Name: Susie Greenwald on Jan 22, 2012

    Comments: About 25 years ago, I brought a group of students to help serve a dinner at Hull House. When I got home, my mother told me that my grandmother received help there when she was a new immigrant. I felt like I was paying Hull House back for the help and hope they had given my grandmother. We should all pay Hull House back and support its continuation.

    Comments: I'm concerned about what will happen to our society if we don't take care of ALL our citizens. Without mental health and social services, our society will pay a much higher price than the cost of these services.
