Sid Feldman was a staunch proponent of
education. Born and raised in the Chicago
Stockyards, Sid was a successful business-
man which he attributed, in part, to being
open to learning and education. The bless-
ings of his career have been bestowed upon
many to enable them access to education
which may have been otherwise out of
their reach. The Sid Feldman Legacy Fund
hopes to continue his belief in education
and its accessibility for all. This foundation
is able to give an incoming CPS graduate
student a scholarship for DePaul. This year
FSL Week’s Penny War contributions will
be going to help this foundation.
