ST. LOUIS — Make-A-Wish Missouri & Kansas is hosting the 2024 Walk for Wishes presented by Spectrum on April 13 in Forest Park. This community walk is a fundraising event that shines a light on the nonprofit and how they provide life-changing wishes to children battling critical illnesses.
The chapter has a goal of raising $940,000 for Walk for Wishes, which will help grant more than 94 local wishes.
A wish has the power to transform lives, bring communities together, and create life-changing moments. Many wish children go on to live healthy lives and reflect on their wish as a turning point in their recovery. It is estimated that each year nearly 600 children qualify for a wish from Make-A-Wish Missouri &Kansas. All proceeds from the walk benefit Make-A-Wish Missouri & Kansas and their efforts to grant wishes to children with critical illnesses.
