On December 13th the James R. Jordan Foundation partnered with United Airlines, the Chicago Bears and Bears Care once again for the Making Holiday Wishes Come True Party.
200 family members from two of our partner schools, Sherman School of Excellence and Victor Herbert Elementary, were invited to participate.
The eager students and their families boarded coach buses at school and were driven to Solider Field. Upon arrival, each family was greeted by a “Family Host” and invited to participate in a number of activities, including face painting, dancing, jewelry making, cookie decorating, football drills and much more! The group came together to enjoy a delicious lunch buffet and play a few rounds of Holiday Bingo.
Prior to the event, each family was asked to complete a holiday wish list. Families were then paired with families from United and the Chicago Bears who provided holiday gifts, making their holiday wishes come true!
