Help Palatine Native Rosie Collucci and Her Family Win a Much-Needed Car!

The young girl has endured a battle with cancer since age 3 and her family could win a vehicle if they win enough votes-until December 21st!

Bella, Jo and Rosie Collucci are pictured.

Below is a message from the individual who nominated Rosie Collucci and her family to win a much-needed vehicle from www.HomewoodChevyCares.com. The mother and daughter, along with older sister Bella, have made numerous sacrifices during Rosie's ongoing battles due to her brain cancer diagnosis - for the last several years. Palatine residents can support this family's efforts to win this car simply by voting once a day for the next seven days - it takes about 20 seconds to do this!

Hello, my vote is for Rosie, Jo, and Bella Collucci.

I work at the YMCA and Rosie is one of my students in the after school program. Rosie has been fighting cancer since she was 3 and despite her struggles and endless pain, Rosie brings so much beauty and light to all she knows.

She focuses on helping and giving to others. Their family has been pounded with financial debt in order to keep Rosie alive. For all their struggles and their constant giving to others, I believe they are the most deserving.
