Make-A-Wish: Thanks, community!

The Make-A-Wish Foundation^® of Idaho would like to thank all of our supporters who attended the event, Steak & Fish for Make-A-Wish^®, on Tuesday night. We had a wonderful turnout and the event was a great success, raising over $10,000 which will fund wishes for two local children. We are thrilled to have a local presence as the Idaho Chapter now serves the entire state of Idaho. All funds raised are used to grant wishes of Idaho children. Thank you to our amazing volunteers for their hard work, to Dockside for hosting the event, and to our sponsors: Helbling Employee Benefits, Dance Theatre NW, Scott Carr with Coldwell Banker Schneidmiller, RnD Architects, Bill & Sandy Winant, Don & Sharmon Schmitt, and the Hagadone Corporation.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation^® grants wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength, and joy. The North Idaho Region is currently working on granting wishes to 6 local children. We appreciate the community support that helps us make the wishes of these courageous children come true!

The Make-A-Wish Foundation^® of Idaho is celebrating its 25^th year of magical wishes and hopes to grant its 1000^th wish this year. The Idaho Chapter is part of the Make-A-Wish Foundation^® of America which is the largest wish granting organization in the world.
