SPARK is incredibly grateful to the Give Something Back – Illinois program for supporting our capacity for a second year in a row by providing us with two outstanding summer student employees. This summer, Kayla Sanchez, a student at Lewis University, and Jocelyn Claudio, a recent graduate of Northern Illinois University, have contributed their time, energy, and passion to every part of our work — from organizing playgroup materials and preparing lesson plans to engaging directly with families and helping with outreach and event support.
We want to thank Give Something Back not only for investing in these bright young professionals but for also strengthening local community programs like ours in a meaningful and lasting way. Learn more about their amazing work at giveback.ngo/give-back-illinois
