TJ staffer Kelly Shumaker organized an office clothes drive that will benefit The Hope Chest.
Now that spring has officially sprung, Taylor Johnson staffers got into the spirit of the season by doing a little spring cleaning in their closets. The donated clothes, which filled several bags, will benefit The Hope Chest, an upscale resale shop and not-for-profit organization whose sole beneficiary is the Constance Morris House, a shelter for abused women and their children. Taylor Johnson's Kelly Shumaker, who sits on the board of The Hope Chest and organized the clothes drive, will deliver the donated clothing to the shop, which is located at 717 W. Hillgrove Ave. in La Grange. Visit the Hope Chest website for information on how to donate or volunteer for the organization.
