Happy Holidays at CYC

Holiday cheer is being shared all throughout our Centers! Thanks to some amazing volunteers and sponsors, we were able to decorate the Centers, hand out food, and give out gifts to our kids!

We wouldn’t have been able to put on such an awesome lineup of holiday events without our volunteers and partners. CYC loves bringing holiday cheer to our Centers, and this holiday season we were gifted some amazing opportunities thanks to a handful of donors.  

We had some incredibly fun holiday celebrations with our kids. We snacked, drank hot cocoa, had face painting, sang carols, and so much more. Santa even came by to drop off gifts! We’re so grateful for our sponsors: Xerox, McDonald’s, Toys for Tots, Goldman Saks, and Michelle Flores of Realty of Chicago. With their help we were able to provide gifts to all of our kids this holiday season, as well as send families home with treats like gingerbread houses and more. 

CYC was able to make sure our families had full tables and stockings this year as well. With help from our other donors, CIL Consultants and Evershed Sunderland, we provided food to over 150 families and stuffed stockings for 500 children. We’re so thankful for our sponsors, donors, and volunteers who help make the holidays even more merry and bright for our communities. 

Give your own gift to CYC this holiday season. Help us continue to be where possibility lives in Chicago.
