Helping children living with a life threatening illness gain their one true wish. Thank you for helping too.

It`s time to get walking again!! I Walked for Wishes November last year and was thrilled with the support/donations I received for the Wish Children. I have been a volunteer for MAW since 1999 and with Bayleys since 2003 so this is an easy decision to make. I get to meet with the children to help them decide on their wish and delivering the wish so personally see the difference the wishes make to the children so I am committing to a minimum of 10,000 steps a day this year :) and am grateful for any donation you can make.
10,000 every day is a big commitment for me but when you see the smile on the child's face and realise the difference you are making for them (and often their families) it makes stepping it out an easy decision. I also realised last year how much you as donors helped me get out and walk as well. I am really grateful for any donation and would love to raise $2,000. Thanks so much for taking the time to read and I will be posting updates over the month of both my walking and some wishes.

a BIG thank you 7 December 2018
Just wanted to say a final thank you to everyone and let you know that I walked 409,505 steps (I committed to a minimum of 10,000 a day for the month) and with everyone's donations raised a total of $1,725. I know when I am delivering the next wish there will be a child that you have helped create a wish for and just to let you see again what your donations do I have popped on a photo of a lovely girl we did a wish for recently who wanted to go to the snow (she had never been) and had an amazing wish. Check out the Magical Mangawhai Facebook page later today for some other bits and pieces.
