Marklund Offers Originally Designed Holiday Cards

Spread holiday greetings this year with original holiday cards created with assistance by Marklund clients. Four designs—singing elves, three kings, winter wonderland snowmen and holly branches—are available to choose from and were created in the organization’s developmental training program by adult clients and instructors.

This is a wonderful way to support Marklund while spreading awareness about the nonprofit organization with friends and family. Cards are available in packs of 20 each for $25. Proceeds support the care of children and adults with profound developmental disabilities.

Orders must be placed by Oct. 15 and may be shipped directly to the purchasers or picked up at Marklund locations.

Order forms are available on Marklund’s website, www.marklund.org, as well as from the following Marklund locations: Marklund at Mill Creek, 1S450 Wyatt Drive, Geneva; the Marklund Children’s Home at 164 Prairie Ave., Bloomingdale; and the Marklund Resale Store, 490 Georgetown Square, Wood Dale.

Forms may be returned with payment via mail to Danielle Ward, Marklund Development Department, at 1S450 Wyatt Drive, Geneva, IL 60134, by email at dward@marklund.org. For information, call Ward at 630-593-5471.
