MAKING DREAMS
COME TRUE
Volunteer at an Upcoming
Make-A-Wish Event
M
u Chapter has done an exceptional job
contributing to our charity partner, Make-
A-Wish Greater Bay Area, led by Philanthropy
Chairman Hannah Farrell. With the latest
successful fundraisers this fall, we have raised
more than $13,000 this year to make wishes
come true for Bay Area children. Because the
average cost of a wish is $10,000, which we've
exceeded, Mu chapter is now in the process of
"Adopting-A-Wish" and hopes to be part of
making a special wish child's wish in the near
future.
Make-A-Wish Greater Bay Area is proud to
announce that they have granted over 400
wishes in this past fiscal year, a new record for
the chapter. We could not grant all the wishes
we do without community members like Chi
Omega fundraising on our behalf. In the next
three years, the chapter strives to reach every
eligible child in the Bay Area and grant more
than 500 wishes per year.
Make-A-Wish Greater Bay Area has an upcoming
event that they would love your help with —the
Hot Chocolate Run is on Sunday, January 7,
in San Francisco. To register for the race, visit
www.hotchocolate15k.com/sanfrancisco.
Make-A-Wish is the new beneficiary of the Hot
Chocolate Run nationwide, and we are hoping
to get all Chi Omega chapters in each of the
race territories across the country involved as
volunteers. Your sisters of the Chi Omega Nu
Alpha chapter of Stanford University have also
shown interest in joining, and this will be a great
opportunity for both chapters to come together
to help support making wishes come true!
Please e-mail events@sf.wish.org or Daniel
Marlay at dmarlay@sf.wish.org for more
information on upcoming events and what you
can do to help.
