Fall 2023 Trailblaze Challenge

Hiking Together
Hiking Together

The Caudels

The best views come after the hardest climb.

We have hiked through California, Arkansas, Arizona, Tennessee, North Dakota and Canada.  But no hike will be as important as this year's Trailblaze Challenge. It's a 28.3 mile ONE day hike through the Appalachian Mountains on the border of North and South Carolina. In addition to the physical & mental challenge, we have committed ourselves to raising funds for Make-A-Wish - a foundation dedicated to granting the wishes of children with critical illnesses. 


Wish kids are some of the most resilient and sweetest kids you'll ever know. Their wishes may be as simple as trip to a pickle factory, or as whimsical as being a superhero for the day, or as generous as giving their baseball team new uniforms.

Make-A-Wish grants 15,000 unique wishes each year. Unfortunately, that’s only 50% of eligible kids. We’re fundraising so more children and their families experience the feeling of all the joy, excitement, and love contained in the fulfillment of their one wish.

Please help us support this impactful mission by joining us on the trail or helping us hit our Trailblaze Challenge fundraising goal.  Thank you for your support!

Sincerely,

Julie & Marc Caudel

*Gifts made through this fundraising campaign are a gift to the entire Make-A-Wish mission. The needs shown are symbolic of the common wish elements associated with each wish and are only representative of our many wish-granting activities. Gifts made will not actually be used to purchase the item or grant the wish described. All gifts will be pooled to meet the needs of Make-A-Wish.
