Community Comes Together to Help Those in Need After Christmas Day Fire

The recent Christmas Day fire in Palos Hills has brought out the best of the Community. City officials and staff, concerned residents, City businesses and local service organizations have all stepped up to assist those residents displaced by the fire with housing and every day needs. After the initial response by the North Palos Fire Protection District and police, building and public works departments, many people and groups have stepped up to help these Palos Hills residents. 


Throughout the past week, the City’s Resource and Recreation Department, in conjunction with the Mayor’s Office, has served as the liaison between the Red Cross and many of those residents involved with the fire. The Department has also worked closely with the Kiwanis Club in providing gift cards to those needing assistance with everyday needs such as clothes, food and toiletries. The Department has also worked extensively with Beds Plus in La Grange to help residents with housing, food and hotel stays.
