Harvest Saturday! (OCTOBER 4, 2025)
Starting in October, The 120 will begin monthly service projects (sometimes more than just once a month)! On Saturday, The 120 teens are invited to sign up to assist St. John of the Cross Catholic church for their Harvest Saturday event:
What is Harvest Saturday?
"Harvest Saturday is our largest service project of the year—and this year marks its 35th anniversary! This beloved community tradition brings Western Springs together to collect non-perishable food for the pantries at our sharing parishes and throughout the surrounding area.
On Saturday, October 4, every household in Western Springs is invited to place donations on their front porch. Our volunteers will pick them up, pack them, load them onto trucks, and deliver them directly to the food pantries we support. Together, we can make a lasting impact on our neighbors in need."
THIS SERVICE EVENT IS AT ST. JOHN THE CROSS: This means high school teens must have a ride there and back.
