American Legion Post 80 collects clothing donations for those in need

American Legion Post 80 in Downers Grove collected a donation of surplus promotional clothing from Minerva Promotions Dec. 19 for distribution among individuals in need throughout the area.

Members of Post 80, including Tom Lynch and Bob Hahn, transported the clothing to Sharing Connections, a Downers Grove-based organization dedicated to providing resources to families and individuals in need. Sharing Connections will oversee the distribution, ensuring it reaches the people who need it most. An additional donation will be made in early 2025.

Post 80 supports local families and individuals through partnerships and collaborative initiatives with its neighbors in Downers Grove.
