Mother McAuley was MIGHTY proud to be featured in WGN's Drive Thru Toy Drive on December 12!
The student body and our community came together to help children in need this Holiday season through our toy drive for WGN’s toy trolley and the Pink Heals foundation. Toys were collected starting December 1, and the toy drive was promoted at our Basketball Grammar School Night to give community members a chance to participate in the giving season with MacNation.
Ana Belaval joined us on 99th Street on December 12 to talk with Principal Dr. Baal, Kruz Smith '27 and Lucy Maloney '26 about the importance of giving back during the holiday season.
Thanks to all who donated to the toy drive and helped make it a huge success!
