We are incredibly grateful to F3 Naperville for their generous donation of $12,200, raised during their 5K run/walk this past September!
This amazing gift was presented to our Little Friends FUN Club during their Monday evening get-together. FUN Club is a vital resource for local students and young adults who have completed high school or transition programs. It provides social opportunities that help participants move forward into adulthood while fostering friendships between peer buddies and individuals with special needs through engaging activities and outings.
Want to join the FUN?
FUN Club meets on the second Monday of each month at the Little Friends Adult Services building (27545 Diehl Rd., Warrenville) from 4–6 PM. No pre-registration required—just come and connect!
Thank you again, F3 Naperville, for helping us make a difference in the lives of so many! 💙

This Giving Tuesday, your support goes even further!
In April, Little Friends joined forces with the Illinois Independent Living Center, expanding our mission to include housing for individuals with physical disabilities. Together, we now operate a 32-unit apartment complex in Naperville, providing safe, accessible homes and fostering independence.
Your gift helps us continue creating opportunities—through employment, housing, and community support—for people with disabilities.

This month, our current cohort of young neurodiverse adults from Little Friends, Inc. Employment Services had an incredible opportunity to tour the DuPage Credit Union Naperville branch!
Led by George Caraballo, Associate Director of Branches & Community Engagement, the group learned about the many different roles that keep a credit union running. Our participants got a behind-the-scenes look at branch operations—opening an ATM to see how it works, exploring the electronic cash counter, and a clear group favorite: sending and receiving items through the drive-up pneumatic tube system!
Experiences like these are invaluable. They help our young adults understand real-world career pathways and build confidence as they prepare for the workforce.
A huge thank you to DuPage Credit Union for being such a supportive community partner and for investing in the growth and success of our participants.
