Crown Technology in Alsip Benefits Children with Cancer

In the spirit of giving, Crown Technology in Alsip, Illinois are helping children and teens fighting cancer. The group recently sponsored a holiday toy drive to benefit the Pediatric Oncology Treasure Chest Foundation. When the last toy was donated, the employees donated toys and $70.

Crown’s highest priority is customer satisfaction. they achieve this goal by continuously improving the cost effectiveness and performance of all products and processes, as well as focusing on innovation.

POTCF Founder and CEO Colleen Kisel said, “The Treasure Chest Foundation is especially grateful to Crown Technology employees for their enormous donation of toys. We are blessed to have their support.”

The POTCF is a unique organization whose services impact more than 14,000 young cancer patients in 59 cancer treatment centers in 20 states across the nation and in the District of Columbia. Nowhere else in the nation does such a program exist. Colleen Kisel founded the organization in 1996 after her then seven-year-old son Martin had been diagnosed with leukemia in 1993. Ms. Kisel discovered that giving her son a toy after each procedure provided a calming distraction from his pain, noting that when children are diagnosed with cancer their world soon becomes filled with doctors, nurses, chemotherapy drugs, surgeries and seemingly endless painful procedures. Martin celebrated his 26th anniversary of remission from the disease in March of 2019.
