Toy Drive in Pilsen
Hello everyone!
I am doing a special Toys and Gift Drive for my community Pilsen.
I decided to give readings in exchange for a gift. These gifts would then be donated to children of the community. Now this gift should be the same value as the reading.
Tarot readings are 20.00 and for additional services it is more.
If you come and get one service bring one toy at the value of 20.00
if you know you will get 2 or 3 services bring 2 or 3 toys of equal value.
Here are my prices:
Tarot Readings 20.00 30mnts
Angel Readings 20.00 30mnts
Palm Readings 15.00 25 mnts
Dream interpretation 15.00 25mnts
Spirit Reading where you contact a deceased loved one 20.00 30 mnts
One hour readings are 40.00
Mujeres Latinas En Accion will be benefiting from this special Toy Drive.
(http://www.
The toys/gifts will go to their clients’ children from 18 months to 11 years old. Most of these children have dealt with abuse in their families and come from a single parent home.
*Please bring a toy or clothing for boys and girls ages 8 months to 11 years old
To book your session for this special Tarot Reading please email me at
cristina@angelictarot.net
or respond to this invite.
Please let me know the day and the time you will come.
Please make sure to keep your appointment we are counting on you to make a difference in these children's lives.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP AND PARTICIPATION THIS MEANS A LOT TO ME!!!!

Adopt-a-Family: Neighbors Helping Neighbors
In partnership with the West Loop Community Organization, we are starting a new tradition in the 2nd Ward. We have reached out to pastors and community leaders to identify families in the 2nd Ward who don't have the resources to have a very good holiday.
We are truly humbled with the interest of this program . . . The generosity of our residents is truly wonderful! However, we still have families who need assistance.
We have asked each family to list each member and a "wish" for a gift this holiday season. We are asking the generous residents of the 2nd ward to "adopt-a-family" and donate the items the needy family requested.
We are hoping to have the items by December 19th, at our office at 1319 S. State St, so we can get them to the families in time for Christmas.
Each family is different, and many of the requests are simple; toys, household items, and winter clothes. 312.263.9273, or email her at: beth.o'mara@cityofchicago.org.
We will provide you with more information about a family available for adoption in this effort. Of course, if you know a family who is struggling this season, please let Beth know, so we can get them involved with this program. We are hoping to give each family their presents during the week of December 19. |
