Thank You for a Successful Toy Drive

On November 3, 2011, in Charities, Events, Fire Department, Fundraiser, by blaze

Saturday, December 16th at the Cubby Bear 7-10pm hosted by the Chicago Firefighters and Ignite the Spirit.

Ignite the Spirit would like to THANK everyone that come out to support our Toy Drive at the Cubby Bear. It was a wonderful success and a fun filled evening. Thanks to you we were able to deliver over $10,000 worth of toys to Illinois Masonic and Comers Hospital. The smiles on the children’s faces were priceless. Again a big THANK YOU!!

 

By itself, a toy drive is a great way to help children that otherwise may not receive a gift at Christmas.  How does Ignite the Spirit make this already heartwarming donation even more special?  How about a party at the Cubby Bear?  How about hundreds of firemen, friends, and family?  How about locking in Friday, December 16th on your calendar, because this is a must attend event!

The children’s toy drive and fundraiser begins at 7 pm, so be there early.  It goes until 10 pm, but we always find it hard to leave the World Famous Cubby Bear that early.  If you bring a toy (please don’t bring a puppy or a pony, they are tough to wrap) it is only $15, which includes beer, wine and soft drinks.  If you are in a Scrooge mode, or just to busy to grab a children’s toy from Amazon, or wherever, it’s $25.

Thanks for your continued support.  Please share our event with your Facebook friends.  If you cannot attend, please donate to our firefighter charity through Paypal, or check out our online store.  HO, HO, HO!

    I work at a community mental health center on the southside. How can my families be eligible to receive gifts from your toy drive?
