Members of the Taylor Johnson team collected donations and handed out Jelly Bellies at the corner of Milwaukee Avenue and Oakton Street in Niles.
Taylor Johnson staffers put their PR skills to work recently for Misericordia's annual "Candy Days" fundraiser as they spent an afternoon volunteering and sweet-talking drivers into donations. The two-day event -- Misericordia's largest fundraiser of the year -- took place April 25 and 26 and drew volunteers from all over the city and across the state. Founded in 1921, the Chicago-based non-profit serves more than 600 local children and adults with developmental and physical disabilities, helping them live as independently as possible while promoting community integration. You can learn more about the organization and the services it provides on its website, www.misericordia.com. Check out the TJ Facebook page for more photos from the event.
