It is always great to
see young people engaged in helping those in need. Last week, HSP was blessed
to have a group of young volunteers from Giant Steps, in Lisle, lend their
support. Their main mission is to improve the function and quality of daily
life for teens with autism all the way through adulthood. Giant Steps came in
to volunteer to sort food for the impoverished seniors served by our Senior
Citizen Project last week. On Tuesday, they had to depart early due to weather
conditions, but still managed to volunteer their time. On Thursday, this group returned
bringing a generous food donation. Finally on Friday, 13 students and aides
volunteered for one hour helping us organize non-perishable food to provide to needy
seniors. We would like to thank the volunteers of Giant Steps for dedicating
their time and passion for improving the service here at HSP! It was a pleasure
to host Giant steps last week and we greatly appreciate their efforts! You can
