New Partner Displays True Colors
on Behalf of Rory
The Rory David Deutsch Foundation is pleased to welcome a new
partner in the battle against pediatric brain tumors. It's Campus Colors,
the nation's largest retailer of collegiate licensed clothing and accessories
in the country, representing over 250 colleges from coast to coast. The
thriving business with locations in Highland Park, Hinsdale and Naperville
will be taking an active role to help children everywhere afflicted with
brain stem gliomas.
Owners, Barbara and Neil Rubenstein are behind the effort and are pleased
to be taking part. They have some very colorful fundraising ideas, which
will be implemented soon. We're planning a major fundraising event
which will be in February and March, explains Barbara Rubenstein.
We're excited because we'll be offering
chances to win a #23 North Carolina basketball jersey signed by Michael
Jordan himself. Any purchase over $50 will earn an entry in
the raffle and a shot at taking the autographed jersey home. People who
don't want to make a purchase can also buy one or more raffle tickets
to show their support. She notes that all raffle ticket proceeds,
as well as a percentage of all sales from all three stores will be donated
to the Foundation.
Barbara adds, The event is being staged mid-February through mid-March
to coincide with NCAA 'March Madness' so we can ride the wave of enthusiasm
and ensure fund-raising success.
Both Barbara and Neil were touched very deeply by stories of Rory's courage
and greatly admire the devotion and dedication of everyone involved with
the Foundation and its cause. It has spread to an enormous family
of people, says Barbara and I want to emphasize the family
part. It's not just an association! Beginning this February, march
yourself over and get in on the colorful and well-meaning madness. For
dates and details on the Michael Jordan jersey fundraiser contact Campus
Colors at 630-778-3300.
