Serendipity Celebrates 50 Years
Little Friends resale shop, Serendipity, celebrated 50 years over the weekend. In the fall of 1971, the shop was introduced to the community. After nearly 50 years in Downtown Naperville, the store was moved to the Aurora Marketplace at 461 S Route 59 in November 2020. The money from the resale shop all benefits Little Friends’ programs to support children and adults that are challenged by intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism.
