Trustee Edward Steve said he held his fifth annual walk for multiple sclerosis this year in 2026 and has raised more than $10,000 for the MS Society over the last five years. He thanked Mayor Jason House for encouraging him to continue the event and described it as an important activity for the Village of Dolton and the South Suburbs.
"I've raised over $10,000 for the MS Society, hopefully to encourage or find a cure," Trustee Edward Steve said, adding that he almost skipped this year's walk but was persuaded to go by the mayor.
Mayor Jason House, who was introduced earlier in the meeting, said the village takes pride in hosting the event. "The Village of Dolton is proud to have the only the MS walk that's on the South Side of Chicago," he said, and pledged that the village will keep the walk going to support residents living with the disease.
