Grateful for support given to Candy Days

In difficult economic times such as our country is currently experiencing, many charitable organizations have seen a decrease in their donations.

Consequently, we were humbled and delighted when people in the Rolling Meadows/Arlington Heights communities generously supported Misericordia's Candy Days!

The staff, residents, and collection volunteers would like to express their deep appreciation to all who participated. The 500-plus children and adult residents of Misericordia will benefit directly, as the funds raised during Jelly Belly Candy Days will be used to enhance programming.

Our heartfelt thanks also go out to all those who so willingly gave of their time to volunteer at the street corners and shops, especially in Saturday's rain. We could never do this without you! Whether this was your tenth year or your first, know that we are grateful for your participation and your support! See you next year!
