CareFest 2020 is happening! 
​With adjustments and precautions in place CareFest will take place on Saturday, August 8! 

CareFest means being Good Neighbors

​​Since 2005, churches from DuPage county (and now Cook County!) have committed to a one-day event in early May to get out and serve in the community.  We call it CareFest.
​

Each year more than 1,000 people gather together at 40+ locations around our community to clean, paint, organize, repair, and landscape.  With the goal to build bridges of love and compassion into the community, CareFest volunteers give their time and skills to help at all types of projects including schools, not-for-profits, and homes in need of care or repair.  We want to be neighbors that are intentional about serving our neighbors.  If you are that kind of neighbor we would love it if you joined up with us -- it would make CareFest even better!
