ROUND LAKE BEACH – State Rep. Sam Yingling, D-Grayslake, recently presented Sara Alwin Gallagher of Alwin Anthony Salon with a Good Neighbor Award.

The award was presented to Gallagher because of her exceptional business, as well as her extensive work in the community.

“Small businesses are the lifeblood of our community, and Alwin Anthony Salon is a perfect example of what a great small business should be,” Yingling said in a news release. “Ms. Gallagher not only runs a quality business, but she also takes the time to give back to her community in very meaningful ways.”

Yingling has been a staunch supporter of local small businesses. During his time in the General Assembly, Yingling has voted to decrease fees on small businesses, increase tax credits for businesses that create local jobs, and provide tax relief for businesses that offer internships and apprenticeships.
