A popular Boys & Girls Club in Chicago’s Little Village neighborhood is welcoming a five-year, $1.5 million grant from True Value.

To celebrate the move, the club, community members and some 100 volunteers from around the country, came together just before the True Value Chicago Reunion to make building improvements and participate in a ribbon cutting. The volunteers were retailers, suppliers and employees of True Value Company.
