Boise, Idaho: This holiday season, Make-A-Wish Idaho is calling on families across Idaho to once again come together through Families For Wishes, a fundraising campaign aimed at delivering hope and joy to children fighting critical illnesses.
Communities of families, friends and more can create their own unique Families For Wishes fundraising page at familiesforwishes.org and raise funds to help grant life-changing wishes. Families For Wishes provides a new approach to fundraising in support of the Make-A-Wish mission by inviting individuals near and far to leverage technology to come together and give back.
“A child’s wish begins with hope, and hope begins with you,” said Janie Best President and CEO of Make-A-Wish Idaho. “By creating a Families For Wishes page and donating to Make-A-Wish Idaho this holiday season, you and your family can join us in bringing joy back into a the lives of local children.”
Signing up is as easy as one-two-three:
- Visit https://wish.org/idaho/families-wishes
- Join the Make-A-Wish Idaho team to raise funds to support local families.
- Create a family fundraising page, add a picture, and begin fundraising!
The goal of this year’s Families for Wishes Fundraiser is to raise $6500, the average cash cost of one wish. In 2022, Make-A-Wish Idaho aims to grant 85 wishes. Currently, there are 145 kids waiting for their wishes, and donations will help Make-A-Wish Idaho grant the waiting wishes in a safe, efficient manner.
