Welcome, now let's make a difference

 

I am participating in the Make-A-Wish Trailblaze Challenge to raise funds and grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich their lives with hope, strength and joy. On May 9, 2015, I will hike 28.3 miles of the Foothills Trail in an effort to grant more wishes to children in Central and Western North Carolina. My goal is to raise $2,500 and I know that with your help I can acheive and exceed this goal!

Wishes have shown to be one of the best medicines for a child with a life-threatening illness. In fact, 96 percent of health professionals observe an increases in a wish kids' emotional health after the wish has been granted and 86 percent say they believe a wish can influence the wish kids' physical health. A wish is able to bring hope and joy to a child during a time in their lives when these are hard to find.

In addition to my fund raising page, I want to use this page to share stories of kids that have been helped through granted wishes and keep everyone updated on my journey to the 28.3 mile hike. Please join me and together we can grant wishes and make a difference in a childs' life.
