Our community comes together to celebrate the 10th annual Day of Resilience. The event is organized by the 7/20 Memorial Foundation as a way for all of us to show our strength and continue to heal following the theater tragedy 13 years ago. We also talk to a survivor who's now sharing her story in hopes of helping others. Also on this week's show, meet a special member of the Aurora team who took part in the annual Donor Dash and hear first hand why organ donation is so important; get a sneak peek of the African Leadership Council's Community Cultural Celebration at the Aurora Municipal Center and get ready to feel warm and fuzzy as we share all kinds of kitty cuteness to help the Aurora Animal Shelter recruit kitten fosters. Those stories and many more this week on Aurora Now.
