As school wraps up, please consider donating items As school wraps up, please consider donating items such as backpacks, small suitcases, and rolling bags to help unhoused people in Chicago. You can drop off your items at the Baird & Warner Winnetka office @bairdwarnerwinnetka by The Grand and Pomeroy or at Chia Leah @chialeah in Wilmette. Radical Generosity Chicago @radicalgenerositychicago organized this collection and they’re always helping the community. If you’re looking for ways to do community service, please get on their mailing list. We’ve made sandwiches from home as a family to help those in need through Radical Generosity. They make it easy to give back. Thank you, Radical Generosity Chicago, for all that you do! ❤️ #helpothers #springcleaning #donation #kindness #radicalgenerosity #radicalgenerositychicago #chialeah #bairdwarnerwinnetka
It's been over a year since I started the Welcome It's been over a year since I started the Welcome to Wilmette video series, highlighting local businesses and community partners. Here's a look back at my very first video, with the fabulous Katie Degen of Central Station Coffee & Tea. If you haven't met Katie yet or if you haven't gotten a drink at Central Station, I dare say that you don't know Wilmette yet. Katie embodies everything that is so wonderful about Wilmette. She brings people together in her special coffee shop. She helps the community through events and much needed caffeine. We'd be lost without Katie! Follow them @centralstationcoffee and stop in for the treats. #centralstationcoffeeandtea #centralstationcoffee #welcometowilmette #aliwenzke #community #neighborhood #localcoffeeshop #supportlocal #shoplocal
