Wish granters have always been
an inspiration to me and what an
honor it will be to watch a dream
come true for someone. We all take
so much for granted every day and
I have seen this firsthand over
the last year.
I can’t wait to help bring a
little light into someone’s eyes.
Being honored like this means
more to me than anyone
can imagine.
What better way to give hope
than to give the gift of love through
a wish? Seeing someone smile is
the best gift in the world to me!
I know personally what it’s like to
have children with complex
healthcare challenges. It’s often
emotionally, physically, and
mentally draining and heavy.
Yet in the midst of the struggle,
I have found joy, strength, courage,
and another day worth fighting
for due to my children’s resiliency
and faith. That’s why I accepted
this role, because I believe that
every child has the right to live
their best life. Make-A-Wish gives
families and children with complex
healthcare issues opportunities
and the freedoms to be present
and remain hopeful.
To whom much is given, much is
required. I govern myself to this
truth and I’m honored to continue
serving my community.
I am a firm believer in giving
more than you take and using your
gifts to glorify God. I pray that
others have seen that and this
gives me hope that they have.
I truly am beaming with joy and
pride to be given this honor.
I love Make-A-Wish and what it
allows families to do. I am beyond
honored to play a small role in
this amazing organization.
Serving our community and
especially children is incredibly
important to me. I love by the
mantra, “to whom much is given,
much is required.” It is my honor
to be selected as an honoree to
support the amazing work of
Make-A-Wish. Being considered
as a woman who inspired
strength and hope is humbling.
I am excited for this opportunity
and want to be a blessing to others.
