Step Up to the Plate

Buffalo Wild Wings & Mangieri Companies are each pledging $100 per homerun that Jim Thome hits throughout the 2009 MLB season to Children's Hospital of Illinois and are asking for you to "Step Up to the Plate" and join them by making a pledge to fit within your monetary means. All monies stay right here in central Illinois for the direct care and needs of Children's Hospital of Illinois pediatric patients and their families.

Any pledge of $100 or more will be promoted by Children's Hospital of Illinois throughout the 2009 season. We ask for a $10 minimum pledge to participate.

We encourage your business, group/organization, or you personally to make a pledge by calling the Children's Hospital of Illinois Foundation at 309-566-5670.
