Results: Thanks to approximately 350 people our first Walk For Wishes was a huge success! Although we will be collecting additional donations and pledges from walkers for the next several weeks, we have already raised over $94,000. Most notable was the $25,000 raised by ten-year-old Parker Underwood, our top fundraiser! We're also grateful to our corporate sponsors, listed below, who walked and raised over $9,500. About 15 teams walked in honor of kids who have already had their wishes. The money raised at this event will help us grant more wishes in the months to come.
Want to be involved next year? We're looking for people who would like to help us grow the event. Just email events@makewish.org.
