Myla's wish reveal was a birthday surprise!
Welcome!
This is my 10th year as a wish granting volunteer and I've helped more than 40 kids receive the joy of a wish in that time. To help make more wishes come true I’ve challenged myself to swim a mile a day for 30 days to raise funds for Make-A-Wish. I hope you can donate to support my swim!
My swim will start on Friday March 29th and end on Monday, April 29th which is World Wish Day - the anniversary of the first wish granted by Make-A-Wish in 1980.
UPDATE! I'm going to try to swim 67 miles by my 67th birthday on May 30 so my new goal is $1670! I actually started consecutive day swimming on March 12 so by May 30 I should be able to make 67 miles!
Special thanks to Stephanie Sala and Five Little Monkeys Toy Store for their support of my swim! And thank you to everyone who has donated thus far.
I'm proudly fundraising for Make-A-Wish – will you join me by making a gift today? Please share this link with others who may be able to help.
When a wish is granted, a child replaces fear with confidence, sadness with joy and anxiety with hope. The majority of wish kids go on to beat their critical illnesses, and research shows that a wish can help children build the physical and emotional strength they need to fight – giving them a better chance of surviving and thriving.
Every day, 70+ children are diagnosed with a critical illness and count on donors like us to help make their wish come true.
Thanks for your support!
Janna Katz, Swim For Wishes!
