On October 13 my office is bringing iCash to YOU with a mobile iCash event at St.Charles Public Library.

1 IN 3 CHILDREN IN CHICAGO ARE LIVING IN POVERTY
DIAPERS ARE NOT COVERED BY GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE
Representative Hirschauer is proud to partner with Share Our Spare to host a diaper
drive from September 27 – October 3, 2021 to help end diaper need in Chicago. The
facts about diaper need in Chicago are sobering:
Share Our Spare is a Chicago-based non-profit with a mission to ensure every child in
Chicago has access to the basic essentials necessary to thrive in the first five years of
life. Share Our Spare collects new and gently used items for children ages newborn to
5 and distributes them to families living in poverty through a network of 100 social
service agencies. During Share Our Spare’s first 8 years they distributed 1 million
diapers but because of the COVID-19 crisis they distributed 1 million diapers in 2020
alone. These diapers went to more than 40,000 children in need. This year Share Our
Spare is on track to distribute more than 1.5 MILLION diapers, helping parents focus
on caregiving instead of worrying about securing the basics for their children.
We invite you to help Share Our Spare collect 250,000 diapers for their National
Diaper Need Awareness Week drive by:

WEST CHICAGO, Ill. – To help local residents safely dispose of old documents, state Rep. Maura Hirschauer, D-Batavia, is hosting a Free Community Shred Day on Aug. 28 at Leman Middle School in West Chicago.
“This shred event is an easy way to get rid of old, sensitive documents without worry,” Hirschauer said. “Instead of simply throwing out old bills, tax returns or any other documents with confidential or personally identifiable information, residents can bring their old papers to Leman Middle School and dispose of them safely.”
Hirschauer is hosting a Free Community Shred Day in partnership with state Sen. Karina Villa, D-West Chicago, on Aug. 28 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Leman Middle School, located at 238 E. Hazel St. in West Chicago. The event is free and open to the public. Residents can bring up to 3 boxes or 2 paper bags of old documents with all paperclips and staples removed previously. Attendees are encouraged to take precautions against COVID-19 by wearing a personal protective mask since children or other vulnerable individuals might be present.
“Identity theft can affect anyone and shredding old documents can help reduce the chances of scammers or criminals getting ahold of personal information,” Hirschauer said. “I encourage all local residents to take advantage of this opportunity to protect themselves against identity theft and to make their homes cleaner by getting rid of old documents in a safe manner.”
