CHICAGO — With 800 volunteers this month, Jahmal Cole’s “My Block, My Hood, My City” is giving homes a holiday makeover for free.

“This year, we did 400 city poles and 250 homes,” Cole said. “It’s going to be so big.”

On Saturday, Mayor Lightfoot and Interim Police Superintendent Charlie Beck joined Cole to string lights outside of the Washington Park Fieldhouse.

“(Cole) turned this into a movement,” Lightfoot said. “It’s making a difference all over the city.”
