2025 Trailblaze Challenge - Greater Virginia

The best views come after the hardest climb!

We are excited to take on this year’s Trailblaze Challenge. In addition to the physical challenge, we have committed ourselves to raising the critical funds necessary for Make-A-Wish to grant the one true wish for each eligible child with a critical illness. With your help, it’s possible.

We are striving to pay it forward to other families like ours. We were blessed to have our son's wish granted as he fought Hodgkin's Lymphoma in 2020. The "wish" granted was priceless and made a significant impact on his well-being throughout his treatment and recovery.

Did you know that Make-A-Wish grants more than 15,000 wishes nationwide every year? That’s a lot, yes. But that’s only 50% of the eligible kids. Every hour of every day, on average, three children are diagnosed with a critical illness. Every one of these kids needs a wish to give them strength and help them heal. I’m fundraising so more deserving kids and their families can know the true happiness, relief and renewal a wish can bring.

These essential wishes are only possible because of supporters like you. Together, we are transforming lives- One wish at a time!

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!
