Lights of Light Tree Lighting Ceremony
6 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 3 – Community Hospital Entrance B, 901 MacArthur Blvd., Munster
Each light adorning the Lights of Life trees at Community Hospital shines in honor or memory of the people who light our lives this holiday season. For every light, a donation is made to support cancer research in our community. For a $10 donation, an honoree’s name will be on display for the duration of the season and in our Lights of Life program book. With a $20 donation, the honoree’s name will be listed, and a Hope Cancer Ribbon pin will be mailed to as a token of gratitude. Honorees and donors are invited to attend a tree lighting ceremony for all who have been touched by cancer. All funds raised by this program support the non-profit Powers Health Cancer Research Foundation, working to bring advances in cancer research to local residents.
