Join the West Orange Junior Service League for its second Light Up West Orange with Love Feb. 12 and 13. Festive luminarias will be sold at the Winter Garden Farmers Market Saturdays, Jan. 29, Feb. 5 and Feb. 12. A set of four can be purchased for a minimum $20 donation and include the bags and battery-operated candles to be placed outdoors at sunset. Profits will be given back to the West Orange community through nonprofit organizations and student scholarships.

“Our mission is to provide loving care and support to our community, from the innocent and impressionable children, to the vulnerable and lonely, through assisting families of all races, ages and incomes. We hope that you join West Orange Junior Service League’s mission through this fun and beautiful event to spread some much-needed love around West Orange while helping local non-profit organizations, as well as award well-deserving students with a scholarship each year,” said Kelly DeLattre, president of the West Orange Junior Service League.

Presenting sponsor for this event is Winter Garden Senior Home Care, which also will be setting up luminarias for its elderly residents to spread the love.
