“It’s a really cute idea of honoring our seniors and bringing some extra joy into their lives with something as simple as a homemade Valentine,” said Jo MaMa, a drag queen and co-founder of the Chicago Black Drag Council.

LAKEVIEW - Gay bars and nightlife workers in Lakeview are banding together to create Valentine’s Day cards for LGBTQ seniors in the neighborhood.
