Hurray for Hollywood
Lights...camera...LOVE AFFAIR!

Avenues went Hollywood this past February. Our stars did shine at the 26th Annual Love Affair dinner/dance gala,  held February 23, 2008, at the Donald E. Stephens Ballroom in Rosemont.

Love Affair Producers Amy Hauser (Chairperson) and Jolene Wise-Silverman (Co-chairperson) and their cast of committee members produced a show-of- shows for those attending Avenues' most glamorous fundraiser.

Guests strolled the Avenues Walk of Fame...chatted with a celebrity and  bid on a variety of silent and live auction items, and won big in the evening's grand raffle.

All proceeds benefited the Avenues No Place Like Home initiative, a project to update and renovate Avenues homes.

The 2009 Love Affair will take place on February 14th.  If you are interested in assisting in the planning of the Love Affair, volunteering that day, or perhaps providing goods or services for the raffle or auction prizes, please contact Avenues Vice President of Development Ann Marie Ehrlich at 847.292.0870 ext. 108.
