Wells Dear Friend, Celebrating Milestones is the theme for AgeOptions annual event which will be held on Thursday, October 15, 2015 in the Crystal Ballroom of the Hyatt Regency, Chicago. The event is a celebration of the anniversaries of three landmark program s for older adults - Social Security (80 years), Medicare, Medicaid and the Older Americans Act (50 years). These are three great reasons to demonstrate your full support of AgeOptions. Join us as a sponsor and celebrate history, associate with the leaders in community services and program s, and be recognized and appreciated as one of the valued sponsors of AgeOptions. AgeOptions and our community partners reported service to over 145,000 older adults, family members and disabled persons in With the undeniable increase of our senior population (expected to double nationally for those age 65 and older by 2030), your sponsorship and support of Celebrating Milestones positions you as a leader in your business sector, as an essential contributor to community and a source of support and respect for older persons in the Chicago metropolitan region and throughout the state. With potential, unprecedented reductions in the support of aging services by the State of Illinois, your sponsorship offers the greatest impact at any time in AgeOptions history. As a sponsor, you will enjoy the opportunity to market your business to community, businesses and social leaders attending the event, as well as through our event marketing materials. Please plan now to prepare your message for the evening s program book. Guests will have opportunities for networking among the more than 300 attendees while enjoying an exciting silent auction, fabulous food and great music in elegant surroundings. On 10/15/2015, recognition of our sponsors will be one of the highest priorities! The enclosed materials outline sponsorship opportunities for charitable contributions and related marketing benefits. Please don't hesitate to or call Glenniece Martin, Celebrating Milestones event coordinator, at or (708) She will be happy to speak to you and answer any questions about the event.
