Join Me At Shell Today To Suppprt Get Behind the Vest

Dear Chicago,



Today, February 20th, I will be pumping gas at Shell Gas Station located at 2632 W. 111th St. (formerly Kean Gas Station) from 1:00-3:00pm, supporting the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation's Get Behind the Vest effort. Come fill up your tank at Shell Gas Station, and 15 cents for every gallon pumped will be donated to the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation's Get Behind the Vest initiative. Shell has generously offered to donate five cents for every gallon of gas pumped to this important cause. Two generous donors have agreed to match the donation to support this worthy cause.

On Saturday, February 21st, please tune in to WGN Radio 720 AM to participate in the Vest-a-Thon Fundraiser from 10:00 am - 1:00 pm in support of the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation. Listeners who call in with donations will have the opportunity to win great prizes, including Chicago sports team memorabilia, and much more. Please see the flyer below.

On Sunday, February 22nd, I will host our 12th Annual Get Behind the Vest Pancake Breakfast from 8:00 am - 12:00 pm at Saint John Fisher School Kane Hall (10220 S Washtenaw Ave). The Get Behind the Vest Pancake Breakfast has raised over $760,000 to date. Please see the flyer below.

Throughout February, the 19th Ward Office and local businesses are collaborating to support the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation's Get Behind the Vest Campaign. On Tuesday, February 24th, a portion of sales at both Lawlor's Bar (3908 W. 111th St.) and Janson's Drive In (9900 S. Western Ave.) will benefit the Get Behind the Vest campaign. Please mention the promotion or show the flyer below to ensure you are included in the fundraiser.

Future Eat & Earn dates: Tuesday, February 24th and Thursday, February 26th

Thank you in advance for your ongoing support of this annual campaign.

Sincerely,



Matthew J. O'Shea
