Some of Our Projects
The Hegewisch Business Association is involved with many projects within the Hegewisch community. Here are a few things the HBA is doing to help improve the neighborhood.
Hegewisch Community Center
The Hegewisch Business Association (HBA) has purchased the former Saint Columba parish social center and rectory at 13323 S. Greenbay Avenue, which has not been used for many years. The proposed plan is to use the facilities as a Hegewisch Community Center where meetings, gatherings, events, sports and recreational activities, social activities, educational programs, farmers markets, and more may be held by organizations in the Hegewisch and surrounding communities. It will serve as a focal point for the business and cultural life of the Hegewisch neighborhood.
But the HBA could use your help with this project because additional funds are needed for the renovation. Please join the HBA in this important and comprehensive community initiative. Your financial support through a sponsorship or donation will make a significant difference in the success of this project. Individuals, businesses, non-profits, and other groups will be appreciative of your participation, now and for many decades to come. Please click the button below to go to the Hegewisch Community Center GoFundMe page and donate whatever you can. We here at the HBA and the the community of Hegewisch deeply appreciate your help.
Hegewisch Fest
Each year the HBA sponsors Hegewisch Fest, the Hegewisch community's celebration of all things Hegewisch. Live music, local vendors, craft artisans and of course, fresh cooked food are all part of the fun at this lively community party.

Community Park
The HBA is working on creating a community park for Hegewisch. It will be located at 13454 S. Brandon Avenue, where it will serve as a peaceful spot for people to enjoy the beauty of nature right here in the heart of the Hegewisch neighborhood.
|
Popup Businesses
The HBA also sponsors popup businesses in the Hegewisch community area. Different businesses can use the spaces available as temporary locations for seasonal or even internet based events.
