Home Helpers of Barrington has donated four tickets to the Lake County Veterans and Family Services Foundation (LCVFSF) for the Thursday, May 25, Chicago Cubs game versus the San Francisco Giants at Wrigley Field in Chicago. In addition, Home Helpers of Barrington has made a pledge to donate $100 for each home run hit by Cubs players during that game.

"Our organization relies on support from area businesses to help sustain and further our mission to veterans in Lake County."
