We are all stronger when we work together and help one another! When the pandemic began to affect the way we all live nearly 10 months ago, the Village created the BG Delivers campaign. It is meant to encourage community spirit and support for - and between - our residents, businesses and all community members who are challenged by the pandemic in different ways. So how can you get involved? Check on your elderly neighbors, help when and where you can through volunteering, support Buffalo Grove businesses - including restaurants by ordering carryout, curbside pickup or delivery - or email the Village pictures that highlight giving back, community members helping each other, or other positive events and initiatives. Click here to learn more – and be sure to support #BGdelivers!
