                        Support the Cause

                        The granting of wishes can change the odds for children fighting their illness. A wish granting helps kids look past their limitations, families overcome anxiety and entire communities experience more joy. Most importantly, wishes can improve a child’s quality of life. Life-changing wishes start with you. Committee members are looking for event sponsors and donations for our silent and live auctions. Your generosity will help grant wishes for children across Michigan facing serious health challenges.
                         

                        For sponsorship opportunities or to donate auction items, please contact Cathy Geiger, cgeiger@abcgmc.org / 989-374-4603. Join us for an unforgettable evening filled with hope, joy, and believing in the power of wishes!
