PAL-Clearbrook's 26th Annual fundraiser "Don't Stop Believing" was held on Sunday, Sept 24, at Pinstripes in South Barrington. Heartfelt thanks to PAL parents Kathy Brierton, Doris Moreno and Bob and Marilyn Peterson, who chaired the event. Marilyn Peterson said, "PAL's annual fundraiser is the cornerstone to supporting our adults with significant disabilities and physical challenges. It's the wind in our sails."

Our dynamic and exciting auctioneer Greg Dillinger helped make the event a remarkable success. The live auction featured exclusive concert tickets, sports tickets and memorabilia, and exciting experiences. Raffle prizes included airline tickets, gift cards, a wagon full of spirits, and cash.

PAL offers its participants year-round programming by providing experiences, services and support that promote lifelong learning and community participation.

The PAL-Clearbrook Program is incredibly grateful to have dedicated supporters, friends, family, and deep community support. Through their kindness and generosity, PAL continues to create opportunities and open doors for the most fragile among us. The secret is that our clients inspire everyone they touch.
