Follow-up to February 1 NCD post

Naperville City Desk first reported on three teens in Aurora who had been injured when a drunk driver struck them on a sidewalk on Jan. 31. NCD is sad to report that one of the kids was very badly injured and since had her right leg below the knee removed as a result of being struck. A fundraiser has been arranged to help the family of the girl with expenses such as retrofitting her current home to be handicapped-accessible or possibly finding a new place to live that is ready to accommodate her special needs. The Naperville Sun reports that people who wish to contribute to aid the girl and her family can do so in three ways. Fannie Mae chocolate bars are being sold at several Earthmover Credit Union locations with half the proceeds going to the fund. Donations also can be mailed to "Client Trust Fund," c/o Joseph P. McCaffery & Associates, 2210 Sandburg Drive, Aurora, IL 60506. Contributions also can be made via PayPal to teenvictimsfund@jpmlaw.net.
