Nothing shines like American Heritage Credit Union (“American Heritage”) during the holiday season. American Heritage invites the community to the 18th Annual Grand Illumination Kick-Off Event on Saturday, November 29, 2025 at 2060 Red Lion Road in Northeast Philadelphia to enjoy more than 400,000 lights and holiday displays.
Each year, the American Heritage campus buildings and trees are illuminated, and multiple light displays are featured throughout the campus grounds. Families can enjoy the sounds of the holiday season with a concert featuring the Philadelphia Boys Choir and the New Jersey Fifes and Drums. Immediately following the illumination, a fireworks symphony will fill the night sky.
At the event, the Kids-N-Hope Foundation will present its annual donation to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. In the spirit of giving, attendees are encouraged to bring a canned food item to help American Heritage reach its goal of 20,000 pounds for its 12th annual Spirit of Giving Food Drive.
