Thank you to our amazing community for making our 2026 WACO Community Baby Shower a success 🩵🩷

We are so grateful for the continued support from Heartland Bank and Trust Company and Old National Bank, and we’re thrilled to welcome The Westin Chicago Northwest as a new partner this year!

Thanks to everyone involved, WACO was able to provide over 9,000 diapers, wipes, and essentials to local families through ECDEC (Palatine) and BrightPoint locations in Schaumburg and Carpentersville.

Your generosity helps us support the children and families who need it most in our communities👶🏻✨

🎉 Thank You Perma-Seal Basement Systems 🚲👏🏼

A huge thank you to WACO’s new friends at Perma-Seal in Burr Ridge! They recently hosted an incredible team-building event at their headquarters, where associates came together to assemble 25 bicycles for the lucky children at Advanced Preschool in Hoffman Estates.

This is a shining example of Perma-Seal’s commitment to Corporate Citizenship—making a meaningful impact on both social and economic issues within our local communities.

Thank you, Perma-Seal, for giving back and creating smiles that will last for years to come 💙🚲

A big WACO thank you to 1891 Financial Life’s Soul Connection team and their amazing leader, Margaret Krupp!

Their annual holiday bake sale brings the community together to support local charities, and we’re so thankful that WACO has benefited from their generosity over the years. Because of teams like this, we’re able to keep supporting children at risk in the northwest suburbs.

We appreciate you more than you know 🍪🧁♥️
