??Celebrating Community Leaders?? Mars Wrigley and LISC Chicago are proud to support transformative spaces like Jardin Malinalli, a community garden in Little Village where young leaders like Amy Roman are thriving and giving back to their neighborhoods. Amy, a 21-year-old creative from Little Village, first joined Jardin Malinalli’s programming in 2018 exploring video and photography. Her journey led her to the garden’s architecture program, where she discovered a passion for design and community-driven spaces. With support from the Mars Wrigley Foundation and LISC, the garden has fueled Amy's dream of bringing community engagement and cultural pride to life. Through Jardin Malinalli, she’s gained hands-on experience, coordinated events and cultivated a space that connects and empowers her community. Her goal is to continue her journey in curating community spaces and uplifting Little Village. #LISCChicago #JardinMalinalli #LittleVillage

?? Celebrating Community Leaders ?? With support from Mars Wrigley and LISC Chicago, Jardin Mallinalli has flourished under the dedication of leaders like Emmanuel Ramirez, who joined the garden as a volunteer just a year ago. Starting with simple clean-ups and planting native plants, Emmanuel’s commitment has transformed the space into a vibrant community hub in Little Village. Today, he organizes volunteer days, workshops and youth programs, bringing together local artists and young people to create, learn and give back to their community. His passion for community-driven spaces has made Jardin Mallinalli a beacon of pride and opportunity, inspiring Emmanuel to dream of expanding these efforts across Chicago’s Southwest Side. #LISCChicago #MarsWrigleyFoundation #JardinMallinalli #LittleVillage
