Jeff Hodges is a self-described community agent of change. As the founder of the One Sound Foundation and a key organizer in several other Chicago community support organizations, he makes the lives of his friends and neighbors better every single day.
One Sound Foundation evolved out of the work Jeff started doing with the Chicago Public Library. Later, he partnered with DePaul University, teaching kids about digital music. And he's also involved with several other community development initiatives, including the Imani Community Development Corporation, which was founded by his father.
