2008 Pennies for PARC

Think that you can't buy much for a penny? One penny may not go far on its own, but collectively, pennies really add up for PARC. We invite you to join PARC staff, participants and volunteers at SAM’S CLUB to raise Pennies for PARC.

When: Saturday April 5, 2008, May 3, 2008, May 24, 2008, June 14, 2008, July 12, 2008, July 26, 2008, and August 16, 2008.

Where: SAM’S CLUB in Peoria.

What: Donate Pennies (and and any other currency denominations) for People Advocating for Respect and Consideration of individuals with developmental disabilities. Funds raised at Pennies for PARC fundraisers go to strengthen and enhance our programs and services.

SAM’S CLUB helps local organizations through their Community Grant program that allows local not-for-profit organizations to hold fundraisers outside their local stores. SAM’S CLUB can elect to match a portion of the funds raised, up to $1,000. PARC is grateful to our local SAM’S CLUB; located at 4100 W Willow Knolls Drive in Peoria, for partnering with PARC to support our mission to provide choices for a quality life to individuals with developmental disabilities.

 

Volunteers are needed for this fundraiser!

Support from the community and business partners like SAM’S CLUB have a direct impact in the Peoria community by helping us maintain, strengthen, and enhance the programs and services PARC offers!
