⚾️✨ Fairy Garden season is officially OPEN!

We kicked things off with pizza, a bounce house, baseball fun, and lots of magic as families joined us for our annual Fairy Garden Launch Party. This year's baseball theme was inspired by the incredible support we've received from Chicago White Sox Charities and the White Sox community, who have helped make this season extra special.

Tiny sluggers, fairy houses, and summer memories? We'd call that a home run. 💙🌿

Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate with us. The Fairy Garden is open all summer long, and we can't wait to see what adventures await!
