Help Lori Grant the Next Wish

Hope is powerful—but for a child facing a critical illness, hope is also practical. A wish experience can lift spirits, fuel strength, and remind an entire family that they’re not facing this journey alone. That’s why I’m fundraising for Make-A-Wish: to turn “someday” into “today” for kids who need a life-changing boost right now.

Make-A-Wish’s mission is simple and bold: Together, we create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. That word “together” matters. Every wish takes a community—medical teams, volunteers, donors, sponsors, and people like you—standing behind one child and saying, "You matter"! 

I’ve seen what a wish can do. It gives a child something bright to look forward to. It gives parents a moment to exhale. It rallies friends, neighbors, and total strangers around a common purpose. Wishes aren’t “extras.” They’re catalysts—helping kids find courage to keep going, helping families rediscover joy, and reminding all of us what’s possible when we show up for one another.

I’m asking you to show up with me.

Please make a gift today—whatever is meaningful to you—and help grant the next wish. Your donation is carefully stewarded so every dollar goes as far as possible for kids in our community. If you’ve ever wondered whether a single action can change a life, I can tell you: this is one of those moments.

Thank you for your support!
