Building a healthier tomorrow
Fraternal Order of Police and Easterseals — taking on disability together!
Easterseals changes the way the world defines and views disabilities by making profound, positive differences in peo- ple’s lives every day. Easterseals serves 33,000 clients annually in programs across 10 counties throughout Chicagoland and Rockford in Illinois and 15 counties in Northwest Indiana.
The Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) takes pride in finding great causes like Easterseals — for inspiration, for new ways to engage law enforcement officers and for opportunities to give back. The FOP has supported Easterseals for more than 40 years to help people and families affected by today’s dis- abilities through a socially conscious partnership. The FOP is made up of caring individuals who want to make a lasting impact in their communities. The leadership, service and ded- ication that the members and administrators of the FOP have for Easterseals is unprecedented.
Your investment in Easterseals — through financial con- tributions and your engagement — helps us to improve the quality of people’s lives, one person at a time.
To complete this vision: Together we are building the new
Fitness, Wellness and Recreation Center to enrich the lives of individuals living with autism and other disabilities at the Terrence J. Hancock Family Campus located at 1939 W. 13th St., Chicago. This expansion of our campus will allow Easter- seals to meet the demanding needs of educating children and adults living with autism and other disabilities by developing additional classrooms in the existing school building.
You are welcome to join us for a groundbreaking ceremo- ny on Wednesday, Sept. 27, at 11 a.m. To RSVP, please call 312-491-4110. To learn more about Easterseals, please visit eastersealschicago.org.
How to give back: FOP Payroll Deduction Program. Pay- roll deduction is an easy way for FOP members to make do- nations directly and automatically from their paychecks to Easterseals. The payroll deduction program is a seamless way to make a big difference. You can select Easterseals from the FOP’s charity of choices to start making your contributions today! d
