Lincoln Park Community Shelter
Alpaytac partners with the shelter to help fight homelessness by publicizing the organization’s annual Metamorphosis Party. The 2011 event garnered approximately 250 registrants and $90,000 in contributions, making it one of the most successful in LPCS history.
"Working with Alpaytac has been a wonderful experience. As a result of their help, the Lincoln Park Community Shelter’s Metamorphosis Party has been featured in major local news and media outlets (such as CS, NBC, and WGN). Our continued partnership with Alpaytac has helped the event grow over the last four years. Not only are the staff is professional, courteous, and prompt, but they genuinely seem to care about our cause. We are looking forward to working with Alpaytac again in the future."
