In a heartwarming display of community spirit and festive joy, Men of Purpose Mentoring and Youth Guidance are proud to host the third annual "Light Up the Season" event at Altgeld Gardens. Set for December 21, 2023, from 2 PM to 5 PM at 13300 S.
Ellis, this event promises to bring the holiday spirit closer to home for families in Altgeld and surrounding communities.
This year's celebration, which includes a 30-foot Christmas tree lighting, toy giveaways, photos with Santa Claus, and a hot chocolate bar, extends a warm invitation to families from extended communities such as Golden Gate, Concordia Riverside Village, Roseland, and Hegewisch.
The event is part of a broader Altgeld Beautification initiative and addresses the area's food desert issue.
