Jeans For Wishes
Wear your blue jeans and help grant the wishes of Illinois children through the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Illinois' Annual Jeans for Wishes Campaign. Held in mid-March, companies can choose one day during the annual Jeans for Wishes week to encourage employees to donate $5 to wear jeans for that day, or $20 to wear jeans for the entire week. Even if an organization already allows jeans in the workplace, employees may still enjoy being part of the statewide campaign by making a donation for the cause and wearing their favorite sports apparel as the college basketball tournament season begins.
Participating organizations will receive a Jeans for Wishes Starter Pack including a banner, promotional materials and stickers to be given to individuals wearing jeans. The inspiring stories of wish children who benefit from this fundraiser are posted online at http://www.jeansforwishes.org/ and employees can feel great knowing that their contributions to Jeans for Wishes truly did make a child's dream come true.
For more information about the program or available sponsorship opportunties, contact Anne Berkoff at 312.602.9419 (800.978.9474, toll free).
