Alderwoman Coggs said the award recognizes selfless and dedicated work to improve the district, neighborhoods and the community. “Dedication to one’s neighborhood, to one’s neighbors and to the community in a selfless and positive manner and with generosity of spirit is what the Difference Makers Award is about, as it truly embodies the beliefs and actions of the late Dr. James G.

“I urge residents to nominate individuals or organizations for this prestigious award,” she said. A nomination form is now available.
Alderwoman Coggs established the Dr. James G.
