- (1888PressRelease) February 04, 2015 - LOMBARD, IL - TradeTec Skyline is participating in the Cal's Angels Toy Drive this year. The trade show event marketing company is serving as a drop-off site for toys and gift cards through the holidays. Any donations received will be given to children who are fighting pediatric cancer at Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago. Donations of new, unwrapped toys or gift cards for kid's ages infant to 18 are welcome at the TradeTec offices through the New Year. Their office is located at 1136 N Garfield Street, Lombard, IL 60148.
"Cal's Angels is a great program that we're happy to support. Too many kids are stuck in the hospital during the holidays and if this can bring them some holiday cheer then we are all for it. Christmas is almost here and we are in the final stages of the toy drive so we're really trying to get the word out and fill the donation bins," said Troy Trice, President of TradeTec Skyline (www.ttchicago.com).
TradeTec feels it is important to help and give back this holiday season, especially to these children fighting for their lives every day. TradeTec has been a sponsor and supporter of Cal's Angels for years. Ken Buckman, CEO of TradeTec, is a Board Member who has helped raise money for the foundation each year with their 5K run, golf outings and other events.
This is the 7th year for the Annual Cal's Angels Toy Drive, which was started in 2007 by the parents of Cal Sutter, a 12 year old boy from Elgin who lost his battle with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia in 2006, a little more than one year after his diagnosis. Since then, Cal's Angels has become a Lurie Children's Hospital partner, pledging $200,000 to the hospital's "Heroes for Life" program. The organization is committed to stocking 2 playrooms in the hospital and hosting 14 hospital parties every year at which patients and their siblings receive a toy drive gift to take home.
