Mark has been decorating his house for Christmas here in Colorado Springs ever since the Air Force moved him here in 2009. His desire for doing this was to bring a bit of joy to those that came by and rekindle the spark of the beauty as well as the meaning of Christmas. Recognizing the large number of people coming by to see his Christmas Lights display, he wanted to add something even more to the community. So, he partnered with Care & Share Food Bank eight years ago, receiving 165 pounds of food his first year, and increasing every year to receiving nearly 3,000 pounds last year.
