Make A Wish Foundation of Michigan

"Joy is not in things, it is in us."
 ~Richard Wagner

"That is the essence of what it is to be human...
to be kind and compassionate to one another."
~Susan Fenters Lerch

Make-A-Wish is our current charity.  Did you know that Make-A-Wish of Michigan currently has more than 550 children approved for wishes and in the midst of planning their adventures?  NMF is planning a fundraiser event to raise money to help continue to make these dreams come true!

More fun facts about Make-A-Wish: The Ann Arbor Walk for Kids that NMF participated in had over 600 participants.  The walk raised nearly $80,000.  Proceeds will go to research cancer, provide top notch medical treatments and make heartfelt wishes come true!

Do you bank with Bank of America?  With a personal checking account at this bank, you can get Make-A-Wish checks and check cards.  Bank of America will donate $10.00 for each new account and $5.00 every year on the anniversary of the enrollment to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
