Have a Heart for Connor

       Benefit

Connor Gill is a Summit Hill/Lincoln-Way North Alumni who is in desperate need of a new motorized wheelchair. His insurance company will not cover the cost of a new chair or repairs to his current chair.  Everyone knows Connor. Nothing brings Connor more joy than to ride around the neighborhood in his chair, and this is something he has not been able to do in over 10 weeks.  So friends of Connor are putting together a benefit to try to raise $38,000 for the cost of new wheelchair for Connor. He is such an inspiration to all of us, and I know there would be nothing that would bring him more joy, than a new reliable chair.

Come out to our Talent/vendor show on January 27 from 6-9 pm at Summit Hill Jr. High (corner of Harlem and North Ave. Frankfort Il, 60423

All proceeds from the nights events will be donated to the Gill Family for purchase of a new motorized wheelchair

Silent auction, 50/50, Raffle tickets, Bake Sale, and much more!

Vendor show including: Tastefully Simple, Park Lane jewelry, Scentsy, Willow House, Feathers by Jaimi, Thirty-one gifts and many more.
