The Children's Wish Foundation of Canada
Run or walk the distance for The Children's Wish Foundation of Canada during the Scotiabank Group Charity Challenge on September 28, 2008
Join The Wishmaker Warriors, and collect pledges to help grant two wishes to children who suffer from high-risk, life-threatening illnesses. You can help create memories for children like five-year-old Nyajah, who suffers from Cystic Fibrosis. Nyajah's wish — to travel to Jamaica with her family — was recently granted by The Foundation. The average cost of a wish is $10,000.
About The Children's Wish Foundation of Canada
The Children's Wish Foundation of Canada (CWF), a not-for-profit organization with chapters in each province, is the authority on wish granting in Canada. With more than two decades of wish granting, and over 13,600 wishes behind us, The Foundation has fulfilled more wishes for children in Canada than all other wish-granting agencies combined.
Your support will help ensure that no eligible child is denied a wish and that we can continue to fulfill some of the most complex wishes imaginable.
Join The Wishmaker Warriors and receive the following:
- Free registration for the first 10 runners who join The Wishmaker Warriors or for runners who raise $250 in pledges; and
- A CWF gift of appreciation
Tax receipts will be issued for pledges over $10.
