"Let's Go!" has turned into my attitude about life. Wake up at 2am several days in a row for adventures? Let's go! Personally hike and fundraise for the event I manage? Let's go! Push for the Alabama Trailblaze Challenge to become the first million dollar Trailblaze in the nation? Let's go!
This event is life changing. It's changed the lives of over 300 Wish Kids in Alabama who have received their wish because of funds raised by Trailblazers. I’ve seen first hand the positive effect a wish has on a Wish Child’s medical journey, because I’ve sat with mothers who sobbed because hearing their child would receive a wish was the first good news they’d gotten in months. Because I’ve received the emails, texts, and calls from parents saying their baby is gone, but they are so grateful they have the amazing memories of their wish. It’s because illness steals a child’s innocence but a wish can restore it. Because of how many Wish Parents say that the wish was the first time they’d seen their child happy since their diagnosis. For Khari, Sydney, Jacob, Jariyah, Jadiyah, Alivia, Pablo, Cole, Gideon, Elijah, Henry, Fisher, Journey, and the more than 275 kids currently waiting for their wish.

It's also changed the lives of over 500 hikers who participated in this event. I've seen a community created, friendships developed, the smiles on the faces of people who did something they never thought they could accomplish. In my own life, Trailblaze gave me a reason to face life during some of my darkest times. So here I am, putting my heart on the line and asking you to support me in raising funds for life-changing wishes. I hike, you donate, together we change lives
Will you help me support Make-A-Wish Alabama by donating today?
