Transform lives, one wish at a time
My roommates from Canadore College have joined together to participate in the 5K Foamfest being held this weekend, July 23, in Barrie, ON. There are 22 obstacles within this 5K run/walk.
We are fundraising for the "Make a Wish Foundation". This non-profit organization helps fulfill the wishes of children with a critical illness between the ages of 2 1/2 and 18 years old.
Description
Donate today and help me transform lives, one wish at a time! For wish kids like Bennet!
Bennet is a seven-year-old boy who loves tacos, pizza, Lego, SpongeBob, bubble-gum ice cream, his PlayStation, the Toronto Maple Leafs, playing superheroes with his brother and all things outdoors like camping, fishing, hiking and gardening with his Dad. Bennett was diagnosed with cancer at a young age, which no child should ever have to face. When it came time to his wish, it was no surprise that Bennet picked a camping trailer. “I love camping and going on cool adventures, and it’s like a house” says Bennet. The most important part of his wish was spending time with his family. “We were all so overwhelmed as we watched Bennet head into his Wish Day! It went perfectly and Bennet was overcome with shock and joy!’ says wish mom Justine. “After going through a cancer diagnosis, treatment and now navigating the lifelong effects of the chemotherapy at such a young age, it was so exciting for Bennet and us to have the focus shift to something fun for our family! We love camping and the outdoors and receiving the trailer opened up so many doors for adventure in the years to come! We are so grateful for the joy and excitement this wish has provided for our family”.
