Description

My name is Diana Lebiecki and I am on the Junior Board of the Gift from the Heart Foundation, an organization that raises money for disabled children to receive life-saving operations in the US.  I respectfully ask that you consider collaborating with my foundation for our upcoming Boat Cruise fundraiser on June 30th 2024.

The event is a 600 person charity boat cruise for 4 hours on Lake Michigan. It will have live music, food and entertainment. We are requesting a donation for our silent auction/raffle. This will be a wonderful opportunity for your company to market itself in front of over 600 Chicago-based potential customers.  A gift of gift certificate/passes to showcase your establishment will enable our foundation to raise money and help foreign and local children in need.  The gift will be displayed as a donation from your company to show that you work with local charities.

Gift from the Heart Foundation is a charitable organization (FEIN:36-3622298) that was founded in 1988 to help critically disabled, European children receive high quality medical care, unattainable in their home countries.  The foundation recently finished construction on a children’s center in Schiller Park, IL, where local children have the opportunity to participate in educational workshops in a safe and nurturing environment. More information can be found on the website www.giftfromtheheartfoundation.org OR www.darserca.org.

I hope that you decide to support our foundation in any way you can.  You may contact me at diana@darserca.org if you have any questions. Any donations can be mailed to: Gift From the Heart Foundation, c/o Junior Board, 3860 25th Avenue, Schiller Park, IL 60176. Thank you for your time.
