The Eric Elias Foundation would like to invite you to its 9th Annual Dinner Dance to be held Saturday, February 25th, 2012, 6:30 pm, at Manzo’s Banquets, 1571 S. Elmhurst Road, Des Plaines, IL.
The Eric Elias Foundation, a not-for-profit organization, was established over 12 years ago to assist families in dealing with the everyday stresses of having a family member that suffers from Muscular Dystrophy (MD). The mission of the foundation is not to donate money for research purposes, but rather to give funds to families so that they may acquire everyday essentials that are not covered by insurance. This could be something as small as a seat cushion for comfort, to the installation of a wheelchair ramp, or the purchase of a wheelchair lift equipped van. By providing these items, we hope to enhance the quality of life for sufferers of MD, and have made great strides in the past five years, assisting several families with your help.
Tickets are $60.00 per person, or $550.00 for a table of ten.
There will be live entertainment from the EE All Stars Band and Jaw Potato, an open bar, raffles, auctions, and door prizes.
