Believe Project: $100 to brighten the mood of a friend who lost a son

Today's winner of a $100 bill through the Believe Project is Margery Katalinich of Palatine.

Here is an excerpt of her pitch:

"I would love $100 to spend on a lovely outdoor winter container for a friend and her husband who continue to experience grief after losing their son a year and a half ago. My friend has a nice porch on her home in Arlington Heights and would enjoy a festive look that would brighten their holiday season. I'd love to surprise them, they are a wonderful couple!"

• The Believe Project will mail a $100 bill each day to someone with a good idea for how to use it to do a good deed for someone else. Email us your pitch of 100 words or fewer (include your name, address and hometown) to specialevents@dailyherald.com.
