South Jordan Neighborhood Gathers for Magical Night of Holiday Giving

There were bright candles burning on the sidewalk in front of every home as neighbors in an 8-block area came together for an annual tradition called the “Charity of Light.” This year residents decided to support students in need in the Jordan School District, especially the growing number of refugee families and others who may go without this holiday season.

Families filled donation bags with things like new winter coats, hats, gloves, socks, weekend food packs, and more, which were donated to serve students in the District.

South Jordan firefighters, along with Santa Claus, led the way as volunteers went from house to house picking up the donated items for “Charity of Light.” It was a special, fun, and festive night, bringing the community together to support a local cause, this time school children in the South Jordan area.

Thank you to everyone involved for helping the community take care of kids!
