Playing For Miracles

a dueling pianos extravaganza

Friday, November 12, 2010  6:30 p.m. to midnight

Ashton Place - 341 75th Street, Willowbrook

Tickets $75.00 per person 

Casual attire

Includes open bar, incredible gourmet dining stations, fabulous entertainment, an amazing silent auction, and our inspirational “Miracles Live Auction!”  Open seating or reserved tables for groups of 10.

Famous for their antics and showmanship at Chicago’s Howl at the Moon, Tony Kidonakis and Andrew Blenderman combine their talents to provide a fun-filled, casual, high-energy, request driven, sing-along, clap-along, dance-along show with their dueling pianos.

Through your support of Playing for Miracles you can provide help and create hope for the children of Catholic Charities.  You can provide meals when they are hungry, specialized counseling so they can heal from abuse and neglect, shelter when they have no place to call home, and a warm to hand for them to hold when they are scared. 

Truthfully, it’s not miracles they need; it’s help from Catholic Charities and you can make that possible. You can give each child we help a chance to feel good about themselves by attending this event, purchasing items from our incredible silent auction and bidding on “miracles”.

Examples of Live Auction Miracles:

  • $20 can provide a healthy and nutritious meal for twenty children who come with their families to Shepherd’s Table, our soup kitchen. I’m sure you’ll agree that no child should ever have to experience hunger.
  • $50 can provide one week of warm and loving childcare for children whose parents are living in our Daybreak Shelter for the homeless.
  • $75 can provide emergency assistance funds so kids can have the basics – food, clothing and shelter.
  • $150 can provide specialized counseling for foster children who have been abused and neglected. Your gift may be the key to their future.
