Ashani's Warriors
Walk With Us. Wish With Us.
Make-A-Wish grants life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. A wish gives children renewed energy and strength, brings families closer together and unites communities. Wish families are your friends, neighbors and relatives.
Our daughter Ashani was diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer, DIPG, in May 2009. Make A Wish granted Ashani's wish to visit Disney World in October 2009 and it was the most amazing experience for her and our family. We will forever be grateful for that unforgettable experience.
Ashani was able to participate in our first Walk for Wishes in May 2010 but after battling this aggressive brain tumor for fifteen months, Ashani passed away in September 2010. We continue to walk in her memory in hopes of raising money to help other children have their wishes granted.
We are proud to support Make-A-Wish and their work in our community. Make-A-Wish creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. Every one of these kids needs a wish to give them strength and help them heal. When they smile, you’ll smile. See firsthand the power of pure joy when you grant a wish for a child battling a critical illness.
These life-changing wishes are only possible because of supporters like us. A wish experience can truly change a child’s life, and so can we.
Will you help me support Make-A-Wish by joining our team on Saturday May 4th at 8am for the walk or by donating today?
