1. Northview Make-A-Wish 2014-2015

2. What is Make-a-Wish?  Make-A-Wish is a club that grants wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions and our main goal of this club is to raise money and participate in service project/volunteer work that benefits Make-A-Wish and club members.  For more information, you can visit http://wish.org/ http://wish.org/

3. What is Make-a-Wish?  Wishes are more than just a nice thing. And they are far more than gifts, or singular events in time. Wishes impact everyone involved - wish kids, volunteers, donors, sponsors, medical professionals and communities. The impact varies. For wish kids, just the act of making their wish come true can give them the courage to comply with their medical treatments. Parents might finally feel like they can be optimistic. And still others might realize all they have to offer the world through volunteer work or philanthropy.
