Dear Friend,
We are delighted to let you know that Stephen “Dober” Harris is organizing his 18 th annual charity golf tournament, the “Dober Invitational”, which will take place July 21st to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Connecticut . This year the tournament will be raising funds for a very special child named Josh from Hartford County . His wish is to go to Hawaii with his family. Thank you for support and friendship to make Josh's wish come TRUE!
Please do your part to share the power of a wish ® by supporting this very special event that helps raise the funding Make-A-Wish needs to grant wishes to medically eligible children. You may make a monetary donation or in-kind donation of items and services that will support the event. In appreciation of your kindness, your business or name will be recognized at the event. Your contribution may also be tax-deductible as Make-A-Wish is a 501(c)(3) organization.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy. Wish-come-true experiences can do wonders by providing a much-needed respite from lengthy hospital stays and medical treatments. They give back to a child what a serious illness can take away—the chance to simply enjoy being a kid, choose something that will inspire happiness, and spend precious time with their families.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation of Connecticut is 100% donor-dependent, and 83.5 percent of every donated dollar goes to its program services. The chapter granted 130 wishes during its most recent fiscal year.
If you have any questions about this fundraiser or our organization, please call me at (203) 261-9044 or visit our website, www.ct.wish.org . Your care and compassion can work wonders in the life of a courageous child. We truly appreciate any support you can offer.
With warm wishes,
Kim Smith
