  Why you ask? For the CHILDREN of course, this is a PLEDGE ride and we are trying to raise funds for Children's Charities!

A BIG thank you to all of you volunteering!. Have a good time and remember to share with others about what we do. You will be a representative of A Special Wish while you are there. It’s a great opportunity to share our kids and the need with them. We grant wishes for children, birth-20, with life-threatening or terminal illnesses. If someone was to ask you the qualifications and requirements for receiving a wish, they are:
  1. The attending physician must verify that the child has a disease/disorder that qualifies them.
  2. They must meet the age requirement.
  3. The child cannot have had a wish by any other organization.

Remember, we are not just looking for donors – we are looking for volunteers! Thank you all for making a difference!!  Thank you much!
