Is Your Child's School Granting a Wish?
DENVER, Colo. – The Kids For Wish Kids program is the perfect opportunity to get your child and their school involved with the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Colorado. Students can join in the fun of making wishes come true while experiencing the positive benefits of philanthropy. Last year alone over 18 wishes were granted directly by friends, peers and classmates of children in the community! Schools, campus clubs, sports teams and service organizations are creating, organizing and successfully realizing wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions.
