Thank You From Make-A-Wish Middle Tennessee

02/21/2019

Dear Car Donation Foundation,

I would like to thank you for your thoughtful contribution to Make-A-Wish Middle Tennessee. Your gift of $9,338.54 was received on February 2, 2019 and will help make wishes come true for Middle Tennessee children who face critical illnesses.

For seriously ill children, the wonder and delight of childhood can seem lost in routines of doctors, hospital, and pain. But we can turn that around, helping children think beyond the experience of illness by bringing their most heartfelt wish to life. A wish gives children renewed energy and strength, brings families closer together and unites communities. When a wish is granted, a child replaces fear with confidence, sadness with joy and anxiety with hope.

Fourteen-year-old Hannah’s obsession with Hamilton was immediate! She listens to the soundtrack on repeat and has it all memorized. Hannah was diagnosed with a spinal cord tumor when she was 10 years old. Since then, she has undergone radiation treatments, surgeries and spinal fusions. Over Christmas, Hannah and her family were able to leave behind the doctors and procedures and see Hamilton on Broadway!

There are few experiences more powerful than making a wish come true. Thanks to your support, we are one step closer to creating life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses.

Sincerely,

Beth Torres

President and CEO
