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 ChallengeUpstate, 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/home/default.asp?ievent=1151165&lis=1&kntae1151165=D6C924E4B0004A529BEE4B64334CF2C7.
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 this site you can donate any amount
of money and leave Doug some words of encouragement. Thank you for your
consideration.
