About The Chicago Police Memorial Foundation
The Chicago Police Memorial Foundation (CPMF) exists to honor members of law enforcement who have fallen in the line of duty. As these heroes have dedicated their lives to serving their city, the CPMF aims to honor them by supporting their families with financial assistance. Having now completed the construction of the Gold Star Families Memorial and Park located on the Chicago Lakefront, the CPMF continues to focus on fulfilling the needs of the families behind the Chicago Police Department.
About the Cancer Wellness Center
From its humble beginnings in 1989 being founded by three friends to the expansive organization it has grown to today, the Cancer Wellness Center has long been a ubiquitous source of support for those who have beat cancer and those who live with cancer. From their emotional well-being to their physical well-being, the Cancer Wellness Center strives to be a beacon of hope and support for those affected by cancer, all without additional financial strain; all services provided by the Cancer Wellness Center are free of charge.
The impetus for the creation of the Cancer Wellness Center was one major shortcoming in the cancer treatment process: the medical treatment is made clear by healthcare professionals, but it’s often left up to the patient to learn how to live with cancer and how to fight it. What better way to facilitate that kind of learning than to connect newly diagnosed patients to survivors? This buddy system was one of the first initiatives and programs provided by the Cancer Wellness Center, which has now grown to include licensed therapists and a dedicated team of exuberant volunteers. Ultimately, everyone involved with the Cancer Wellness Center has the same mission: to serve participants the absolute best care.
Test Drives for First Responders
Recognizing the sacrifices and commitment of first responders, Marino CJDR initiated a unique program—Test Drives for First Responders. This innovative initiative not only allows individuals to experience the thrill of driving the latest CJDR vehicles but also directs funds toward supporting those who selflessly serve the community every day.
