Some of our current fundraising efforts include: All Occasion Note Cards Photographer Pete Doherty has developed a passion for "midwest moments," often spending scorching summer afternoons or blustery winter mornings to capture delightful photographs of our beloved Chicago skyline and Indiana Dunes scenes. Pete offered 12 of his choice photographs for use on the note cards and along with the generosity of Tom Largus, owner of Largus Printing, the cards became a reality. These all-occasion cards, each with an uplifting or positive title printed on the back, represent a glimpse of the Midwest at its finest. Each packet includes eight note cards - four separate scenes, two cards of each scene. There are three different packet styles to choose from. Each packet is $15, with the proceeds benefiting the Cancer Resource Centre. Cards can be ordered online or are available for purchase at the following locations: Community Surgery Center 801 MacArthur Blvd., Munster 219-836-7183 Fitness Pointe 9950 Calumet Avenue, Munster 219-924-5348 The Gray Goose Inn 350 Indian Boundary Road Chesterton, IN 46304 Pals Nails and More 8124 Calumet Avenue, Munster 219-836-0500 Phaze I 2449 - 45th Avenue, Highland 219-924-7210 Red Garter Gift Shoppe Community Hospital 901 MacArthur Blvd., Munster 219-852-3047 St. Catherine Hospital gift shop 4320 Fir Street, East Chicago 219-392-7030 St. Mary Medical Center gift shop 1500 S.
