Make-A-Wish South Carolina grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy. Make-A-Wish South Carolina has never turned a qualified child away and granted 177 wishes last year, averaging 3 wishes a week. Make-A-Wish South Carolina is funded through private donations, individuals, companies, and special events. An upcoming event is the Trailblaze Challenge Upstate, scheduled for May 6-8, 2016, on the Foothills Trail located in upstate SC and western NC. This endurance event offers participants the choice of a 28.3-mile or a 16.4-mile hike. For registration information, go to http://www.kintera.org/faf/
BUT if you're not up to hiking 28.3 or 16.4 miles at one time but still want to help a child with a life-threatening condition, please consider donating to one of the participants. Doug Hendrick (formerly of Steamer's Cafe) is Mrs. Carbonneau's son and he will be hiking for this cause. Doug's personal hike page is
https://shar.es/1hXJ0M. At that site you can donate any amount of money and leave Doug some words of encouragement. Thank you for your consideration.
