Orland Park Bonding and Insurance Specialists Make a Bond to Help Kids

The Orland Park Bonding and Insurance Specialists recently gave to children and teens fighting cancer by collecting toys and teen gifts to benefit the Pediatric Oncology Treasure Chest Foundation (POTCF). The Pediatric Oncology Treasure Chest Foundation is a non-profit organization that provides a toy, gift or gift certificate as a means of comforting children and teens diagnosed with cancer.

Bonding and Insurance Specialists Agency is the nation’s longest-running environmental program administrator with over 30 years of experience in the environmental and restoration industries. They quote, bind and issue policies/bonds with in-house authorities.

“We are so pleased to have the support of the Orland Park Bonding and Insurance Specialists,” said an appreciative Colleen Kisel, Founder of the Treasure Chest Foundation. “Their generosity will help brighten the holidays for so many brave children facing the adversity of battling cancer.”

The POTCF is a unique organization whose services impact more than 16,100 young cancer patients in 66 cancer treatment centers in 21 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 29th anniversary of remission from the disease in March of this year.
