The Make-A-Wish Foundation of Wisconsin has been granting wishes to children with life-threatening illnesses since 1984. Since then, the foundation has helped these families by granting over 3000 wishes. The wishes that these children make can be anything they want to do such as take a trip to Disney World, go on a shopping spree, get a room makeover, or just simply meet one of their favorite celebrities. As a non-profit organization, this foundation often reaches out to the community for donations and financial support to ensure that they may grant as many wishes as possible for the children in need.
One way the foundation reaches out to the community is through their events during the Season of Wishes. Throughout the holidays, Make-A-Wish will be offering ample ways for people to open up their hearts and contribute to the cause. They will be selling things such as 2012 calendars and holiday cards for businesses or individuals to purchase in support of the foundation. There will also be promotions going on through their national partners such as Panera Bread and Macy's with a toy drive and letters to Santa.
If you would like to learn more or want to get involved with the foundation, visit the website at wisconsin.wish.org. Make-A-Wish is always looking for new people to volunteer or help sponsor their events. Businesses are encouraged to become sponsors as well as individuals who want to open their hearts. Every wish child deserves to get their wish. Why not help?
