Mary Crane Center Charity Event
|
Dear True Lacrosse Friends and Parents,
Please be our guest at the True Lacrosse Fourth Annual Charity Event for the Mary Crane Center at Emmett's Ale House in Downers Grove on April 29, 2011. True Lacrosse has been involved with the Mary Crane Center for several years because we believe in and support the mission of the charity.
The Mary Crane Center started as the Mary Crane Day Nursery at the Jane Addams Hull House assisting children of immigrants. The Mary Crane Center now offers day care, preschool, monthly field trips and meals to children whose parents need assistance and cannot provide these things. Because we at True Lacrosse feel so strongly about this charity, we have helped them in hosting the Annual Charity Event, raising over $4,000 for the Mary Crane Center last year, helping hundreds of families across the Chicago area.
We hope you can attend this charity event- this is also a great way to connect with the True Lacrosse Family off the field, enjoying good beer, good food and of course, good company! Mark your calender- We look forward to seeing you on Friday, April 29th!
Sincerely,
Cassandra Potter |

"Let us accept the child in our midst as our greatest wealth and our highest responsibility. Let us exalt him above the industry, business, politics, and above all, the petty selfish things that weaken and destroy a people. Let us know that the race goes forward through its children."
