AAIM’s 20th annual benefit will be held on October 24, 2010 at Venuti’s Banquets in Addison, Illinois.

There will be a luncheon served, along with a silent auction and cash raffle. Illinois Top Cops will be honored at the luncheon, along with a salute to AAIM volunteers. Proceeds from the fundraiser benefit victims of drunk driving who are suffering financial devastation due to a crash involving an under-insured or uninsured drunk driver. Since 1991, over $500,000 has been awarded to needy families. Everything from medical equipment, household necessities, doctor bills, and even burials has been provided to those innocent people who, through no fault of their own, cannot afford these necessities.

Tickets for the event are $75.00 and cash raffle tickets are available for $5 each or 6 for $25. For information regarding the benefit, call the AAIM office at 888-240-0027.

Candace participated in more than 20 plays during her high school years. Her ambition was to be an architect. The significant thing about Candace is that she never drank alcohol or did recreational drugs. She was devoted to family, education and hard work. Sadly, two drunk drivers took her life on December 26, 1999 in Downers Grove, Illinois. She was 18 years old. Please visit www.candacewesolowski.com Peanut's Walk for Life The 8th Annual Peanut's Walk for Life was held June 21, 2008 at Wauconda High School in Wauconda Illinois. The event is held in memory of Theresa Stanley who was killed in an alcohol-related crash. Proceeds from the event will benefit AAIM's victim services program and the Theresa Stanley Scholarship Fund. Peanut's annual Walk for Life was started to raise awareness of the terrible consequences of drunk driving and to help other victims of this crime. If we can keep just one intoxicated motorist off the road and save just one life, then our efforts have served a purpose - after all, it was just one man who took Theresa's life. Peanut's Walk for Life is a 5Krun/2 Mile Roll or Stroll. For information, go to www.walkforpeanut.com. Walk 5k for Caitlin A drunk driver killed Caitlin Weese in May of 2003. One week before graduating from Larkin High School in Elgin and just three weeks before her 18th birthday. The 7th annual walk to help raise money for a Larkin High School scholarship program and drunk driving awareness through AAIM will take place June 12, 2010 at St. Thomas Moore School in Elgin. On September 4, 2004, hundreds of family, friends and neighbors attended the first annual 5K Walk held in Elgin in memory of Caitlin. The walk was a huge success and the family hopes that it will grow over the years. Please check www.walk5Kforcaitlin.com for updates or Click here for a pdf flyer.
