If you cannot attend this event, consider a donation.<\/p>\n<p>Visit the Make-A-Wish Foundation and read the 914 wishes that have been made by children. They are small and large, simple and complex but all are heart warming. One wish was for a prom dress, another for a puppy, while others were wishes to visit other countries or states. Another wish was for horseback riding lessons. For many people these are common everyday things but for children who are facing life threatening health issues, they must mean so much more. Can you help by attending the Annual Wine &amp; Wishes event? If not, perhaps help with a donation.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers!
