Thousands joined the 40th annual Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning bringing the community together on a day for giving thanks.
To date, The Dan Gibbons Foundation has donated approximately $4 million dollars to local charity organizations within the County of DuPage.
Funds raised will go to eradicating hunger and to promote long-term sustainability in the county. Congratulations to all the participants. ■

![Aili Flannery’s award-winning sculpture, “Process,” was made of copper, string, copper wire, glass beads, glass, rust-stained fabric, lace, turmeric sun-printed paper, and thread. It represents “the timeline of having depression to the process of healing,” Flannery explained, and the theme is rooted in her own experiences. “‘Start’ shows up again at the end [of the piece], because I was ready to start healing and to continue living.”](https://dupagemagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/26-1-DG-Scholastic-Art-Writing-Awards.jpg "26-1 DG Scholastic Art & Writing Awards")
