Yes, it is Tax Day… but we can turn this day into a really big positive day for a wonderful Charity – Make a Wish. Let’s all take this day and help children with life-threatening medical conditions to bring hope, strength, and joy to their lives. These children go through so much fighting for their lives and what joy it brings on their faces to have a trip, a special toy, a playground and etc. to take their minds away from all the medical things they are going through.
How can you help? So glad you asked!

I’ve never known anyone who was touched by the Make a Wish foundation, but I’ve heard so many heart-warming stories about it. What a blessing this charity is! I’m glad to know all those BC products I purchase are helping!

This is such a wonderful idea!
I don’t know anyone personally who has benefited from the Make a Wish foundation, but I do know many with ill children. I think It’s wonderful that such an organization exists, to life the spirits of such sick little ones! 🙂

I don’t know anyone IRL who they have helped but I do know a sweet little boy named Parker from http://www.PrayingForParker.com had a wish fulfilled by the Make-A-Wish foundation. His wish fulfilment gives him much joy. His mom has shared photos of him online enjoying his swings.
What a wonderful foundation.
