You know, following my friends and trying to be Mr. Big.. And it turned into drinking and abusing my body: so I came to Streetwise. They kind of gave me the uplift that I’m working for myself and giving me the chance to redeem myself and prove I am somebody. And I just ran with it. And they told me it’s up to me. As far as I let myself go, that’s where I’ll go and so far I think I’m reaching the sky. Today, I’m living good. I’m being honest with myself. I’ve passed the bad things behind. I’m not looking back over my shoulder at the things I did, because I wouldn’t be who I am today if I hadn’t of joined this organization. And it’s a great thing and I’m happily married and I just thank everybody and God for carrying me this far. -- Don Smith Ronald McDonald House Charities 910-0360 Maggie Grace Pote started her life in the NICU at St. Edwards Hospital with her family wondering how they were going to manage the logistics and finances of being close to her. The Ronald McDonald family room at the hospital provided her mother with not only a safe, clean place to stay but also a network of support and relationships with other parents sharing progress, frustrations and fears, and triumphs. Today Maggie is doing great--a thriving gorgeous baby. Her family will never forget the staff, volunteers and sponsors who gave friendship, support, meals and a comfy place for her family when they needed it. CARE 901-0110 Francisca is an excellent student who excels in science. She wants to be a teacher and knows how important it is to continue her education. Yet her mother, Maria, worries about paying for uniforms and books while raising four girls on her own. Maria eagerly participates in initiatives supported by CARE, including serving as president of a group that is growing mushrooms as a cash crop. Maria says she gets more than economic benfits from the women’s assocation--she received muchneeded emotional support when her husband abandoned the family. Maria has the opportunity to counsel and encourage women who are going through what she went through. John G. Shedd Aquarium 909-0275 In October 20, 2013, Shedd Aquarium announced the launch of the most ambitious solar panel installation of any cultural institution in Illinois. Shedd is currently in the first phase of installing 913 photovoltaic solar panels on the roof of its Abbott Oceanarium. The 265-kilowatt solar electrical system is part of the aquarium's Master Energy Roadmap, an energy initiative aimed at cutting energy consumption by 50% by 2020, which would make Shedd the nation's first clean energy-powered aquarium. Special Olympics 905-0000 Special Olympics - Great at Any Age Special Olympics isn’t just for kids. Grace Stevens of Quincy is enjoying the benefits of Special Olympics into her 70s. She competed in bocce at the 2014 Special Olympics USA Games in New Jersey in June. Many athletes with intellectual disabilities start the program as children, but Grace became involved as an adult. She has been involved for more than 20 years, competing in bocce and bowling. For Grace and other athletes, Special Olympics not only improves their physical fitness, but provides an opportunity for socialization with their peers. “Being involved in Special Olympics has encouraged me to stay active and be healthy,” says Grace. “It also gives me a chance to hang out and have fun with friends.” ASPCA: American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals 911-0220 When ASPCA Humane Law Enforcement Agents investigated an anonymous tip in Staten Island, NY, they made a terrible discovery—dogs left for days in outdoor crates without food or water. One dog was voluntarily surrendered. The young Pit Bull, whom the ASPCA named Smoke, was malnourished and suffered from a neck wound. Initially, this energetic pooch had a tough time putting his troubled past behind him, but after more than a year of rest, relaxation and compassionate care, Smoke emerged as one of the popular and active dogs in the shelter. Deemed a “charmer” by ASPCA, it was no surprise that a potential adopter saw something special in Smoke’s soulful gaze. One seamless adoption later, Smoke is happily nestled in a new fabulous New England life. 5 Your charity options... 913-0000 American Heart Associaion When you donate to the American Heart Association, you are joining us in the fight against our nation’s No. 1 and No. 4 killers – heart disease and stroke.
