Help Cabrini Connections, and the Environment, One Bag, One Dime, at a Time

Whole Foods Market has selected Cabrini Connections to be the beneficiary of a new program designed to help our community partners raise needed funds.

The One Dime at a Time program provides an incentive to Whole Foods Market customers to eliminate single-use plastic bags and develop stronger communities all at the same time.

At the register, customers will have the option to receive a 10 cent per bag refund as cash back off their receipt or they can choose to donate it to that month's selected charity organization.

During April, May and June, 2009, Cabrini Connections, Tutor/Mentor Connection, is the charity of choice for five Whole Foods Market stores located in the Chicago Downtown area. These include the

Lakeview Store - 3300 N. Ashland, Chicago, Il
South Loop - 1101 S Canal St # 107, Chicago, IL‎
Lincoln Park - 1000 W North Ave, Chicago, IL (new store location will be 1550 N Kingsbury St, Chicago, IL)
Gold Coast - 30 W Huron St, Chicago, IL‎

Tell your friends about this. Every customer who goes to Whole Foods Market during this time frame will be a potential new volunteer or leader at a tutor/mentor program in Chicago, or at Cabrini Connections. Some may even become grant makers who direct corporate and foundation dollars to tutor/mentor programs.

Thank you Whole Foods Market!
