This past holiday season, the Bethlehem Market at Saint Zachary Parish in Des Plaines had a special visitor who brought smiles, laughter, and a dash of holiday magic: Tom Merlin, the owner of Home Helpers of Des Plaines enjoyed playing Saint Nick at this year's event. Tom donned a red robe and white beard, delighting families and children at the event.

Home Helpers of Des Plaines is proud to have a leader who not only supports the well-being of others year-round but also takes the time to embody the holiday spirit.

Here’s to more moments of connection, joy, and giving in the year ahead—thank you, Tom, for reminding us of the true spirit of the season!
