The document discusses a Make-A-Wish service project and radio request-a-thon. A team of 8 people answered phones and took donations, helping to raise over $500,000 in 36 hours for Make-A-Wish. A 2011 study found that granting wishes through Make-A-Wish empowers children with life-threatening illnesses to fight harder against their conditions and improves quality of life for them and their families. Make-A-Wish grants an average of one wish every 38 minutes to children with critical illnesses.

According to the results of a 2011 Wish
Impact Study that surveyed parents, health
professionals and Make-A-Wish
volunteers, a wish come true empowers
children with life-threatening medical
conditions to fight harder against their
illnesses. When wish kids are granted a
wish, they get more than just a great
experience for a day, two days or a week.
That experience improves the quality of life
for them and their entire family!

4. Our team participated
in the WZPL/Make-AWish Radio
Request-A-Thon.
We answered the
phones, took
donations and helped
them raise over
$500,000 in 36 hours.

5. Make-A-Wish grants a
wish, on average, every 38
minutes to a child with a
life threatening medical
condition. Wishes come
in all shapes and sizes.
Some are heartfelt or jawdropping, funny or tear
jerkers, all equally
important.

6. Make-A-Wish grants wishes
like Miles every day. We
hope that with a winning
entry we will be able to grant
a wish to a child with a life
threatening illness to enjoy a
day of fun!
