As Chairperson of the District 88 Foundation, I would like to invite you to attend the 28th Annual Addison Mayor’s Community Charity Ball.

The event will begin at 6 p.m. on Nov. 10 at Alta Villa Banquets (430 N. Addison Road in Addison), and your generous contributions will help support the District 88 Foundation, which benefits students at Addison Trail and Willowbrook high schools. The District 88 Foundation is a member of the PIE Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that serves public school students in District 88, Addison School District 4, District 45 and Salt Creek School District 48. Founded in 2009, PIE is designed to be the foundation that supports a long-term partnership with the community, businesses, schools and, most importantly, the children served.
