A percentage of your race entry will be donated to the designated charity. This year you will run for Make-A-Wish Central and Northern Florida Foundation.
The mission of Make-A-Wish Central and Northern Florida Foundation is to grant life-changing wishes to children with critical illnesses. Make-A-Wish® foundation goes above and beyond to grant once in a lifetime wishes to very amazing children. The foundation traces its inspiration to Chris Greicius, an energetic 7-year-old boy battling leukemia who wished to be a police officer. In 1980, his Phoenix community came together to make his wish come to life. Little did Chris know that his wish would create a movement that would transform millions of lives.
99% of wish parents reported that the wish experience gave their children increased feelings of happiness. This is because a child’s life shouldn’t be about illness, hospitals, or a diagnosis – it should be about wonder, joy, and hope.
