The clothing drive the now-24-year-old woman started years ago in her parents’ North Aurora garage recently learned it was the recipient of an Illinois Infrastructure Improvement Grant in the amount of $320,000.
The measure was approved on a 225-201 roll-call vote. Nine Republicans including Illinois members Adam Kinzinger and Rodney Davis, both lame ducks joined Democrats in passing the measure.
Hindu Swaymsevak Sangh, in collaboration with over 50 Hindu and Indian organizations, hosts a food drive every year during the festival of Diwali. They recently made donations to Aurora Interfaith Food Pantry and Marie Wilkinson Food Pantry.
