CHAD has been selected, along with six other non-profit organizations, to participate in the “Community Trees” Display at the Robert R. McCormick Museum at Cantigny Park in Wheaton, IL. Each nonprofit organization will be decorating a Christmas tree in a manner that reflects their mission and will receive a $2,500 donation from the McCormick Foundation. In addition, CHAD has the opportunity to obtain a second matching donation of $2,500 from the McCormick Foundation if our tree is chosen by visitors to the museum as their favorite tree. The trees will be on display between November 25th and December 30th on the days that the museum is open.

Please consider visiting the “Community Trees” display during the holiday season and encourage your family and friends to attend as well. We need your votes to obtain the second donation of $2,500! The funds will be used for general maintenance of CHAD’s inventory of over 400 housing units so that we continue providing hardworking individuals and families with the ultimate gift of stable and permanent housing.

The McCormick Museum hours in November and December are 10:00 am to 4:00 pm, Tuesday-Sunday, with visits by free guided tour. In addition, the museum will host a special Open House from 5:00-8:00 pm during Cantigny’s Celebrate the Season Holiday Festival on Saturday, December 6th. Parking is $5 per vehicle.
