WHY: As a child, Thomas received exceptional care from Marillac St. Vincent’s services – and, this holiday season, he wants to continue his tradition of paying it forward via his foundation, Mary’s Court (named after his late mother), to support Chicago-area children that are currently enrolled with the organization.

TIME:Â 4:30pm to 7pm
