Hand/Vital Bridges helps people impacted by HIV and
AIDS build healthier lives.
A front-runner in the war
against HIV and AIDS, Vital Bridges is a multi-service, non-profit
organization meeting the complex needs of its clients at no cost
to them. By combining
food and housing assistance,
nutrition counseling, case management, HIV testing and
prevention, Vital Bridges provides a life-line of wrap-around services that rebuild
and
stabilize lives. Chi-Town
Squares' own Merry Mary collected plastic
and paper bags (Dominick's, Fields,
Lord & Taylor...any
kind that can be reused) to help raise funds and awareness for this
great organization. Please consider donating your bags for
this worthy cause. Thank
you for your support!
*Note: Please NO dry cleaning, vegetable
or newspaper bags. | |
