The group provides food, clothing, shoes, books, toys, and small household items and are open from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Mondays through Thursdays. Karen Wilson is the executive director of Operation Blessing. When many neighbors were in dire need due to unemployment with the closing of Owens-Illinois Glass and other industries, Virginia Kirkpatrick started collecting food and clothing from her friends in the early 1980s. It began with plywood on sawhorses to distribute what she collected. Her husband, Ned, gave her $500 to start what became Operation Blessing, a 501 (c)(3) organization, in March 1982.

EDWARDSVILLE - Collins Farms at 219 Hillsboro Ave. in Edwardsville had its ribbon cutting with the Edwardsville-Glen Carbon Chamber of Commerce on Thursday afternoon. Sophie Gianaris, an owner of Collins Farms, said her business has been open since June. "My mom and sister own this business with me," she said. "We had this dream of owning our own business.

I also spent some time in New York City and they had trendy healthy eating options, and I felt Edwardsville needed this type of business. "We were looking to fill a void in the city and that is what we have tried to do. My grandfather and family have Collins Farms in Yale, IL.

Technical difficulties connecting the in-person meeting to those joining remotely delayed comments from Mozur, who teaches philosophy.

The agreement was made without Boeing admitting or denying the SEC findings.
