Employees in the Edwardsville office of HeplerBroom have again donated to Equipping the Called Foster & Crisis Closet, a non-profit group that provides basic necessities such as clothing and toiletries to children when they are initially placed in foster care. Julie Tracy, the organization’s co-founder, expressed her deep gratitude for the firm’s support. (In 2019, HB’s employees donated nearly $3,500 to the organization.)
