City of St. Charles Board of Fire and Police Commissioners issued the following announcement on June 19.
From time to time, I am going to spotlight a non-forprofit
in our community area that focuses on helping
people. This month, I want to introduce you to Cal’s
Angels.
Cal’s Angels is a St. Charles-based 501(c)(3) pediatric
cancer foundation established in 2007 after Cal Sutter
lost his battle with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia in
2006. During his treatment, Cal always cared about
others before himself. His kindness was the inspiration
behind a foundation that would grant wishes, raise awareness and fund research
to help kids fighting cancer.
Cal’s Angels offers a wide array of programs to help hundreds of children fighting
cancer each year: wishes, hospital parties, fantasy flights, 12 days of Christmas,
Cal’s comfort kits, awareness, and research.
All money raised stays local to help local kids in Chicagoland.
Cal’s Angels will help schools, businesses, and organizations GO GOLD during
the month of September, which is National Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month.
Sign up to Go Gold at www.calsangels.org/awareness
