Description

The Lux Gala will be hosted on Saturday, November 18, 2023, in the exquisitely restored art deco interior of Chicago’s Old Post Office. Lux will be a premier black-tie evening where 700 of Chicago’s most influential decision makers will be entertained by aerialists, immersive, interactive, and free-roaming entertainment, breathtaking performances, charitable gaming, raffles, live and silent auctions, elevated dining, dancing, and more.

 

Mercy Home is over 99% privately funded, and we rely on supporters like you! With your help, we are confident that Lux will be Mercy Home’s largest fundraiser. Like Ringside, our signature fundraiser that ran for 30 years prior, Lux will be sure to captivate attendees’ imaginations while providing the much-needed funds that ensure our kids receive a safe and nurturing home, an excellent education, and tools to build successful and self-reliant futures.
