About Imerman Angels

Imerman Angels carefully matches and individually pairs a person touched by cancer (a cancer fighter or survivor) with someone who has fought and survived the same type of cancer (a Mentor Angel). Cancer caregivers (spouses, parents, children and other family and friends of fighters) also receive 1-on-1 connections with other caregivers and survivors. These 1-on-1 relationships inspire hope and offer the chance to ask personal questions and receive support from someone who is uniquely familiar with the experience. The service is absolutely free and helps anyone touched by any type of cancer, at any cancer stage level, at any age, living anywhere in the world.

Imerman Angels is a federally registered 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. To learn more, please visit www.imermanangels.org or call 877-274-5529.

About Plum Market

Matthew and Marc Jonna are third generation retailers who grew up working for their father’s store, Merchant of Vino Marketplace, a natural, organic, and specialty food and wine store with six locations across the Midwest. After eight years’ sabbatical from the Merchant of Vino days, brothers Matt and Marc Jonna sought to introduce a new grocery concept, later to become Plum Market with the first store location opening in 2007.

The philosophy is simple. “We have set out to create a grocery experience like no other. We believe that choice is paramount, and our product selection reflects that,” says Matt. Mixing the very best in natural, organic, specialty and local products, the aisles are filled with inviting aromas and unexpected delights.

This is not your neighborhood supermarket. It is much, much more. In short, Plum Market and the Jonnas want nothing less than to revolutionize the way your family shops for food.
