Make a Wish Foundation

Help Gentle Dental Associates Make Wishes Come True

July 2nd, 2014

At Gentle Dental Associates, we love to support our Ann Arbor, MI community, especially when it comes to children. One organization that makes such a big difference in the lives of children is the Make a Wish Foundation.

For seven years now, our administrative assistant, Heather, has participated in the Wish-A-Mile bicycle tour to raise money to help grant wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions. Heather will begin her 300 mile tour on July 24th in Traverse City and conclude on July 27th in Michigan Speedway in Brooklyn. Her goal is to raise $2000 and her team’s goal is to raise $45,000. Now in its 27th year, the Wish-A-Mile bike tour has raised millions of dollars for the Make a Wish Foundation.

The work done by the Make a Wish Foundation hits home to our practice. After a dear friend of one of our patients lost her son to a brain tumor at the age three and received his wish, Heather’s participation became that much more meaningful.

The thing that is the most special about this event is that so many people come together with a single purpose and vision: to see the wishes of children granted.

You can sponsor Heather’s efforts by donating to her team, David’s Heroes. Simply go to Make a Wish and donate online at https://michigan.wish.org/ways-to-help/giving/donate. To learn more about Wish-A-Mile, visit http://www.kintera.org/faf/home/default.asp?ievent=1085062.
