Community volunteers will be soliciting for donations on street corners from 6:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m. or dusk. We provide them with a bright orange safety vest with Park Lawn's logo, a bucket with Park Lawn's logo and a tag with information about Park Lawn.
We are asking for your permission to solicit donations for Park Lawn. Please fax the signed form to me at 708-229-9325 or scan and email it to csanmiguel(£>parklaw n.com. If faxing is not available, please call me at (708) 425-6867 or mail it to Park Lawn, 10833 S. LaPorte Ave. Oak Lawn, IL 60453.
