Football Frenzy Fundraiser for Normal Moments

Fundraising event, football nfl players, normal moments, children, families

Join in the second annual Football Frenzy Fundraiser for Normal Moments on October 18th at the Hyatt, Schaumburg, where the Bears vs Lion game is on a big screen and there are a variety of diversions for all ages: food and beverages, photo booth, kids-only raffle table, face painter, adult bucket raffles, and much more. A few special guests from the ‘85 Bears team may even join in this event. Tickets are: $30 for adults, and $15 for kids until Oct. 9. Add $5 per ticket thereafter.

Normal Moments is a 501(c)(3) non-profit providing supportive services to over 300 families in the greater Chicagoland area with a critically ill and/or medically complex child. Founded in 2007, Normal Moments sends a combination of professional, paid service providers and volunteers to clean houses, maintain lawns, clear snow, do special projects, and more throughout the year. The ultimate goal? More quality family time when it is most needed, because when a child is ill, scared, or in pain, they only thing they really want is Mommy and Daddy by their side!

In addition to these services, Normal Moments also sponsors a holiday Adopt-a-Family program and, with the financial support of the Illinois Back Institute, provides Thanksgiving and/or Christmas meals to those families financially drained due to medical needs.
