Dear Friend,

 

Don't miss the celebration! Buy your tickets today for FACT's second annual Fund-a-Farmer Party at Uncommon Ground on Devon!  

 

Last year we awarded grants to nine deserving farmers for projects to improve animal welfare on their farms.  We're aiming even higher this year! 

 

All the funds (yes, 100%!) raised at our party will go directly to farmers and their animals.  Tickets are only $20 and include a drink and light appetizers.   REGISTER HERE.  

 

Come nosh on locally sourced bites, listen to live jazz performed by Chicago musicians, enter our raffle and bid on exciting silent auction items.

 

Organic Valley Dairy Cooperative has donated a year's supply of Organic Valley products (valued at $520) to our silent auction. You have a chance to take home this and other big-ticket items, including:

  • A weekend get-away at Walnut Grove Farm
  • Meat and vegetable CSA shares
  • Chicago theatre tickets
  • A $125 gift certificate for Frontera Grill
  • And more!!!

These awesome items could be yours - just REGISTER today and we'll see you on October 24th at Uncommon Ground (1401 W. Devon Ave).  

 

At this year's party, you can meet 2012 Fund-a-Farmer grant recipient Matt Weik of YKer Acres!  Matt will speak about their family farm, their animals and how their Fund-a-Farmer grant from FACT is making a difference.

 

Interested in donating items to FACT's silent auction? Contact Jacki Rossi at jro...@foodanimalconcerns.org.
