Good morning, Chandler.

Chandler resident Kimberly Vega needed help after a two-week hospital stay and joined the Sunrise in Chandler back-to-school drive by donating supplies to the Valley Boys & Girls Club—she earned $9,000 in rent credits to cover her rent through December.

Waymo resumed its autonomous service in the Valley after a storm caused several vehicles to become stuck in floodwater—company checks will ensure vehicles are safe for future rides.

The firm paused operations during heavy weather and has now returned to normal service.

Tremble Clefs Arizona, a choir group that gives music therapy to people with Parkinson’s, will host a free benefit concert at 1 p.m. on Nov.
