Email from 19th Ward Office

Dear Chicago,



Throughout February, the 19th Ward Office and local businesses are collaborating to support the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation's Get Behind the Vest Campaign. Please mark your calendar today, February 10th, and a portion of sales at either Joey's Red Hots (11500 S. Western Ave.) or Top Notch Beefburgers (2116 W. 95th St.) will benefit the Get Behind the Vest campaign. Please mention the promotion or show the flyer below when placing your order to ensure you are included in the fundraiser.


Chicago Police Officers are provided a new bulletproof vest when they graduate from the academy. Over time, these vests break down and need to be replaced. Through the Get Behind the Vest Campaign, the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation purchases new bulletproof vests to help protect the brave men and women of the Chicago Police Department.


Future Eat & Earn dates: Tuesday, February 17th, Tuesday, February 24th and Thursday, February 26th


Thank you in advance for your ongoing support of this annual campaign.


Sincerely,



Matthew J. O'Shea

Alderman, 19th Ward
