Black on Black Love in state house bill 313

Via Capitol Fax this bill is in PDF format and the following paragraph is on:
Section 1370.

The sum of $200,000, of so much thereof as may be necessary, is appropriated from the Build Illinois Fund to the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity for a grant to the Black on Black Love for costs associated with the acquisition and renovation of a new facility.
This organization, founded by former hair care magnate Ed Gardner, was once located near 95th and Cottage Grove on the lot of the former House of Kicks (which was a former Gardner enterprise). Currently the home of Black  on Black Love is at 1000 E. 87th Street. I do believe that's the home of radio station WVON-AM.

Now the next question is where else might this foundation move?
