Celebrate HarrysButtons.com at Easter Seals 10th Anniversary! HarrysButtons.com is a 
micro-enterprise that was founded in 2004 by Harry Engnell Sr. to
improve the lives of adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) by
providing opportunities for structured production-type employment for his adult son, Harry Jr., and his peers. In 2010, Harry Engnell Sr. 
donated HarrysButtons.com to Easter Seals Metropolitan
Chicago. Since that time, HarrysButtons.com has employed 70 students
and clients and has made over 300,000 products for 500 businesses.

Help raise critical funds and improve the lives and futures of individuals living with Autism and other disabilities by giving your
time to collect donations at local intersections in Tinley Park. Invite
your friends, family and co-workers to participate in this exciting
opportunity. All participants must be 16 years and older. Safety vest,
badges and collection containers will be provided. A button handmade at
HarrysButtons at Easter Seals will be given for each donation. Volunteer
shifts are available from 10am to 6pm.

We are looking for both team intersection captains and volunteers!
