got miles?<br />

Make-a-wish Montana offers<br />

sick kids a chance to travel<br />

bILLINGS – This holiday season, frequent fliers can donate<br />

unused airline miles to children with life-threatening medical<br />

conditions.<br />

The wishes in flight program, through the Make-A-wish<br />

foundation, enables those with air miles through Delta, uS<br />

Airways, Continental or united Airlines to grant travel opportunities<br />

to kids who might otherwise not get the chance.<br />

More than 70 percent of the wishes granted by Make-Awish<br />

last year included air travel for families to reach their<br />

wish destinations, and miles never expire once they’re<br />

placed in a Make-A-wish account.<br />

Make-A-wish – Montana is a nonprofit organization that<br />

grants wishes to children with life-threatening medical<br />

conditions. Make-A-wish serves all 56 counties in Montana<br />

and granted its first wish in 1987. Since then, nearly<br />

300 wishes have come true with the help of more than 50<br />

volunteers.<br />

For more information on donations, referring children or to volunteer,<br />

please call (800) 676-9474, or visit montana.wish.org.<br />
