The Trailblaze Challenge is a multi-month training and fundraising journey that culminates with a 28-mile hike in a single day on the Foothills trail of North and South Carolina. I have been training since the Spring to endure this physical challenge. The long hike is a symbol to the children fighting critical illnesses, that we are all stronger and more resilient than we ever imagined, giving them the hope and strength they need to keep fighting. The fundraising component of the challenge is where I am asking for your support in this journey to inspire hope for those children fighting for their futures. Every step I take will push me forward torwards my walking goal, but you are where the tangible impact will be felt, as every dollar donated pushes forward our goal to grant a wish for a child who definitely deserves all their wishes to come true.
The stories below illustrate just how impactful your help in granting a wish is for Wish Kids and their families.

Did you know that Make-A-Wish has granted more than 550,000 wishes around the world? That’s a lot, yes. But right now, for every wish that comes true, two more children with critical illnesses are waiting for theirs to be granted because Make-A-Wish lacks the necessary funding. I’m fundraising for Make-A-Wish so that more deserving kids and their families can know the life-changing joy, renewal, strength and hope that a wish can bring.
Life-changing wishes are only possible because of supporters like us. A wish can truly transform a child's life, and we have the power to grant it. Please, donate now!
