Headed home. Thank you, Chicago!
Our last day in Chicago was spent helping at an urban farm and learning about a nonprofit that is a safe space for youth.
Chicago Day 3- Free Day! We visited Chinatown and Millennial Park. Then there was exploring and shopping. The night ended with some delicious Chicago deep dish pizza.
Chicago Day 2 started with Pat declaring, "Katherine, you're trying to steal my drip, bro." Then, we spent time serving clients in a food pantry and learning about what "a hand up, not a handout" looks like.
Boozhoo TrekNorth Families!
