Rich Township Lights Up Christmas Tree with a Powerful Message of Unity and Healing

Community Leaders Unite to Promote Love, Peace, and Inclusion

Calvin Jordan, Rich Township Supervisor, will be joined by over 1,000 Southern Cook County residents, three Illinois State Senators, four Illinois State Representatives, two Cook County Commissioners, and 10 Southern Cook County Mayors in a celebration of diversity as the MEGA Rich Township Christmas Tree Lights will be powered on.

A Message of Racial Healing

Supervisor Jordan will lead State and local leaders as they will publicly send a unified message of racial healing, given the disturbing reports of increased racial hate crimes throughout America since the presidential election. The mass group has dedicated the annual Christmas Tree Lighting and holiday street party to spread messages of love and tolerance during this challenging period throughout the nation.

A Call to Action

“The spike in post-election racial hate crimes has cast a dark cloud over our nation. As Americans, we are so much better than the divisive and deplorable occurrences that have attempted to cripple our nation. However, here in Calumet City, we will begin the healing process through our firm chains of diversity and inclusion that has enhanced the upward mobility of our city. Love, peace, and inclusion is our holiday message tonight,” says Supervisor Jordan.

A Night of Celebration

The evening will feature a live holiday concert, games, food, gifts for kids, public displays of diversity and messages of unity by officials from all walks of life. For the fourth consecutive year, over 1,000 residents are expected to attend this huge annual event.

Leaders Weigh In

Illinois State Representative Debbie Meyers-Martin adds, “I am thrilled that Supervisor Jordan and the Rich Township leaders are delivering these positive messages of hope, love, and inspiration during this season. It is imperative that our nation rises beyond these negative trends and begin putting our country back on course to solve problems and help people who are challenged.”

“I am grateful to all my colleagues for their commitment to this event. In Rich Township, we thrive on our diversity. This year’s message is truly what our nation is in dire need of,” says Matteson mayor Sheila Chalmers-Currin.
