Libertyville Kids Raising Money For Condell's Coronavirus Fight

LIBERTYVILLE, IL — A group of Libertyville friends will come together Friday to raise money for Advocate Condell Medical Center's fight against the coronavirus. From 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Friday, a group of neighborhood kids in the 800 block of Lake Street will be selling snow cones and popcorn from their social-distanced "6-foot stand" (with some help from adults on-hand).

Dog walkers, runners and anyone passing by the kids' stand (across the street from Butler Lake) during those hours can purchase a snow cone for $1 and/or popcorn for $0.50.

These children are an example of the ongoing support being shown across Lake County and the Chicago area for essential workers, healthcare centers and businesses. If you'd like to help hospitals and health centers in your area, check out Patch's guide detailing what these local frontline workers across the Chicago area need, and how to donate.
