Murphy Magic

My dad and I are excited to take on the Make-A-Wish Trailblaze Challenge in San Diego this year!

We have participated in Colorado and Oregon's Trailblaze challenges in the past and are excited to take on San Diego's 28 mile challenge this May as team Murphy Magic!


Make-A-Wish holds a special place in mine and my family's heart. Due to a brain tumor I was diagnosed with at the age of 4, I was granted a wish the next year. Being 5 at the time of my Wish I still recall two strangers coming to my home and telling me to make a wish. My first thought was that I wanted to live with Ariel under the sea but logically, as a little girl i knew I couldn't breathe underwater so I wished to live with Snow White instead. We were shortly sent off to Disney World! This trip was such a pivotal time during my recovery as it allowed to me to a kid and not think about my surgery and limitations as well as allowed my family to enjoy being a family again.


In addition to the physical challenge along the Pacific Coast Trail, we have committed 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!


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!

*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.
