Good morning, Naperville.
🏘️ Community
Naperville food pantries are bracing for a surge in demand as SNAP benefits will end on Nov.

Naperville Fire Department personnel were honored by Citizens Appreciate Public Safety at Mesón Sebika on Thursday night when 29 firefighters received community service awards for their dedication to public safety.
The ceremony celebrated teamwork and excellence — including Cadet Captain Jacob Bustos, Randy Broadwell, and Firefighter/Paramedic Philip Carmody, who earned the George Winckler Award for his work on mental health training programs.
💼 Business
