Decorate your very own Sweet Home Chicago Gingerbread house!
From the comfort of your home, decorate your very own gingerbread house. Join hundreds of youngsters who will attend 
the 19th annual Sweet Home Chicago benefit at The Four Seasons Chicago.

Make a donation today. For each $135 tax-deductible contribution, WINGS will send you or someone on your gift list a Sweet Home Chicago gingerbread house decorating kit. Shipping via UPS included.
Share photos and videos of your children’s decorated gingerbread houses at #SweetHomeFamilies.
