Holiday for Hope
Click here to donate to this years Holiday for Hope!
The first ever Dreams For Kids event was held on Christmas Eve, 1989, in a small homeless shelter on the Southside of Chicago. Today, Holiday for Hope is the largest holiday event of its kind in the world.
On Saturday December 17th from 9:00AM-4:00PM at the IBEW Hall (Click here to sign up) , over 1,000 homeless and severely underprivileged youth in Chicago will enjoy a spectacular day of food, music, games, clowns, face painters, and each child receives a shopping bag full of gifts. Similar events are hosted across the United States and in approximately 30 countries around the world.
Inside shelters and orphanages, on the streets of tiny villages, and in churches, synagogues, and community centers, the forgotten children of our world celebrate life, each other, the gift of generosity, and hope for the New Year.
