Hoffman Estates Chamber collecting school supplies

The Hoffman Estates Chamber of Commerce and Industry invites you to join its members in the 2014 "Tools For Success" program through Aug. 8. This community-focused program provides new school supplies to children in the community who may otherwise start school empty-handed. Donated supplies will be distributed anonymously to children through area school district personnel. For the past 18 years, the chamber has worked on this very worthwhile project. Needed supplies include paper, notebooks, backpacks, glue sticks, crayons, highlighters, scissors, folders, addition and subtraction flash cards, tissues and the like. Among the many drop-off locations are the Schaumburg Township District Library and its branches in Hoffman Estates and Hanover Park.
