Food Packaging Company and Chicago Athletes Respond to Crucial Needs of Aid Organization

June 10, 2010

[Lyons, IL] – Food Packaging Warehouse retailer and two Chicago Bears will actively participate in the Good Shepherd Center’s 2nd Annual Golf Tournament. GPC organizes the June 18th event at a time of particular need for its wide-range of family services.

As a sponsor, Food Packaging Warehouse supports activities that include 18 holes of golf, celebrity buffet reception, and audience with two of the top 50 Chicago Bears, Steve “Mongo” McMichael and Doug Buffone.

“Participating in this golf event is in line with FPW’s commitment to the special needs of the area,” says Jeff Lukas, president of Packaging Resources Inc. FPW’s parent company. This goal is especially important, Lukas says, as both PRI and FPW have thrived in part by working with Chicago area businesses.

By supporting the charitable event, the FPW staff hopes to strengthen the impact of Good Shepherd Center’s good deeds and ensure GSC’s care can reach many families in Chicagoland.

With a drop in government assistance, organizers at GSC depend even more on outside intervention. 100% of sponsor donations and volunteers work will go to helping families manage physical and cognitive challenges.

This event comes on the heels of PRI’s Chicago Cares Serveathon day team as well as its 10th year anniversary. “A decade is a proud benchmark and these two worthy causes are the first of many for PRI,” says Lukas.

Advocates at Good Shepherd Center say the unique and urgent needs of children with and without disabilities make the golf event a remarkable opportunity to empower children with disabilities in the Southwest suburbs.

“The actual event is really enjoyable, it’s a beautiful setting and it’s a great cause,” says Cheryl Assise, GSC representative.
