Aunt Martha’s Joins with Tix4Cause!

As we continually explore alternatives for fundraising in support of our mission, we are delighted to announce that we’ve joined Tix4Cause.com. Tix4Cause is a ticket exchange website founded on an innovative yet simple concept—ticketholders sell their unwanted tickets, and can donate 100% of the proceeds to our cause.

Tix4Cause is a novel way to donate, where:

• Ticketholders turn their unwanted seats over to Aunt Martha’s, and qualify for a tax deduction.
• Ticket purchasers choose from these great seats, and receive reasonable pricing (tickets are offered at fair market prices).
• 100% of ticket proceeds are given to Aunt Martha’s.

The success of our partnership with Tix4Cause depends on you. I know many of you have tickets that, for various reasons, cannot be used. To ensure we hit the ground running with this program, I’m requesting your unwanted sporting, theater, or music event tickets.

Don’t let a single ticket go to waste—instead, place them for sale on Tix4Cause. We are truly excited about this opportunity, and look forward to this great, new way to help support our mission.

Aunt Martha’s Plans Health Center in Joliet

Aunt Martha’s has provided its child welfare, juvenile justice and community capacity building services in Will County for more than 25 years. The organization’s effort to increase access to services in one of the County’s neediest communities is currently on hold, however, pending a decision on its request for $6 million in stimulus funding to provide health care services to the medically underserved population living on the East Side of Joliet.

If approved, the request will enable Aunt Martha’s to build a state-of-the-art community health and education facility on the campus of Silver Cross Hospital. The Hospital has agreed to donate the land on which the facility would be built, as well as provide funds to support the delivery of services in the first years of operation.
