This was a memorable Wish Week assembly for Ashlee Carey, Kids For Wish Kids Manager, and made her even more aware of how important the Kids For Wish Kids program is in teaching today’s youth about the importance of giving back and helping those in need.
For many students at Rock Canyon including Ryan and Ariel, Wish Week is all they know – it’s part of their school culture and is part of the lasting legacy they plan to leave behind for incoming students to follow.
Students involved in the Kids For Wish Kids® program do more than help Make-A-Wish® Colorado, but also become leaders and role models in their community.
Wish Week is, and will continue to be, Rock Canyon’s commitment to an amazing organization. It is a celebration of the children who have the courage to fight back against aggressive illnesses and a reminder of the fragility of life.
“Our daughter got to shine and be the center of positive, healthy attention for a whole week.”
Our wish kids, families, volunteers and supporters have either witnessed or experienced first-hand the impact a wish can have on a child with a life-threatening medical condition, and have different experiences and memories associated with our organization.
