Make a Wish- Wyoming

Make-A-Wish Wyoming serves children who are battling critical illnesses. Our chapter is currently working on 38 wishes here in Wyoming. A wish experience can be a game-changer for a child with a critical illness.

Wishes are more than just a nice thing. And they are far more than gifts, or singular events in time. Wishes impact everyone involved - wish kids, volunteers, donors, sponsors, medical professionals and communities. The impact varies. For wish kids, just the act of making their wish come true can give them the courage to comply with their medical treatments. Parents might finally feel like they can be optimistic. And still others might realize all they have to offer the world through volunteer work or philanthropy.

Whatever the odds, whatever the obstacles ... wishes find a way to make the world better. Find out more here.

Junior League of Cedar Rapids

Over 900 children under the age of 18 are in foster care in the Cedar Rapids, Iowa community. These children are given very little (if any) warning that they will be removed from parental or primary care- most have little to no belongings and usually arrive with nothing. We, the 2018 Junior League of Cedar Rapids, are working to give them a sense of home & belonging wherever they go by creating “Kid Packs”. The intention is to collect a variety of unused personal items (blankets, books, pajamas, toiletries) to help provide these children with a sense of ownership when they have so little and are frequently on the move.

For over 100 years, Junior Leagues across America have worked with women, children & families who are in need of support. In Cedar Rapids, we have begun to focus on the needs of the youth in the foster care system and finding ways we can help bring them comfort and provide them with opportunities to succeed.

Illinois Transplant Fund

ITF provides financial support for eligible transplant patients who lack the resources to pay their insurance premiums, ensuring health insurance coverage and making it possible for these patients to be added to the organ transplant waiting list. 

We believe that a person’s financial status should not be a barrier to his or her ability to receive a lifesaving organ transplant. 

We believe transplantation decisions should be based on health status — not insurance status.

We believe providing health insurance premium support increases access to organ transplantation and saves lives.

Jason Anderson Memorial Golf Tournament

On April 20, 2010, the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Rig took the lives of eleven men, including our dear friend, Jason Anderson.  Jason was the devoted husband of Shelley Simons Anderson, loving father of Lacy and Ryver, and a wonderful friend to all who knew him.  Spending time with family was Jason’s top priority when he was home from the rig.  He also loved to play a round of golf with his friends.  All proceeds from the Jason Anderson Memorial Golf Tournament will be placed in a scholarship fund that will benefit high school seniors who plan on furthering their education at the college level.

Thanks to the generous contributions from our sponsors, players, and friends, we have been able to award 98 scholarships - totaling over $85,000 - to local seniors since 2010.

Watertown Police Department

On April 18th the 2 suspects from the Boston Marathon bombing shot MIT Police Officer Sean Collier in cold blood and then hijacked an SUV. They led police on a chase that ended in Watertown. Our men responded and there was a terrifying shoot-out in a residential neighborhood. The officers kept their cool and subdued one of the suspects. The other escaped and was found the following night. We are all familiar with the story.

Since the incident we have been receiving an enormous outpouring of support from all over the country. The most moving cards and letter have been from the children. They truly speak from the heart. Saying things like, "thank you for making us feel safe again" and "you make me want to be a police officer when I grow up". We believe that it has been therapeutic for the children (and our officers) to write these letters. Your award will help us send these children something in return. Thanks so much.

Officer Brad Fox

While responding to a call on the evening of Thursday, September 13, 2012, K9 Officer Brad Fox of the Plymouth Township Police Department was tragically killed in the line of duty. It was the eve of his 35th birthday. Brad was the beloved husband of Lynsay, the loving father of Kadence and Brad Jr.

The five year veteran Plymouth Township Police Officer had recently graduated from the Philadelphia Police Canine Academy with his partner, Nick, a Belgian Malinois. K-9 Officer Nick was also injured in the incident but managed to survive; he was awarded several citations for Service, Bravery and Valor. In addition to his community service at home, Brad was also a decorated staff sergeant in the U.S. Marine Corps. Brad’s service spanned 10 years including two combat tours in Iraq. He was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal, Combat Action Ribbon, Navy Presidential Unit Citation, Selected Marine Corp Reserve (X3) Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Iraq Campaign Medal, Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary Medal, Navy Sea Service Deployment Ribbon and The Armed Forces Reserve Medal. Please see www.officerbradfox.com for more information.

The Food Trust

The Food Trust's mission is ensuring that everyone has access to affordable, nutritious food and information to make healthy decisions. Working with neighborhoods, schools, grocers, farmers and policymakers, we've developed a comprehensive approach to improved food access that combines nutrition education and greater availability of affordable, healthy food. The Food Trust was founded 20 years ago with a simple idea: healthy change.

There were neighborhoods throughout Philadelphia where residents couldn’t easily buy healthy foods like fruits and vegetables. And science shows us that people who live in these underserved neighborhoods are more at risk for serious diet-related diseases like obesity. A recent study by the Philadelphia Department of Public Health found that – for the first time in decades – the obesity rates among Philadelphia school children decreased by 5 percent between 2006 and 2010. This is one of the first studies showing a reversal of the country’s troubling obesity trends, and it suggests that together, we have found a key to obesity prevention: a comprehensive approach that combines nutrition education and increased access to healthy foods.

Fallen Officers Remembered

Fallen Officers Remembered supplies bullet-proof vests to part time police officers in Luzerne and Lakawanna County in Pennsylvania, and around the United States. Many police officers and their families including children will attend.

Our mission is simple, powerful, and critical: to bring law enforcement officers home safe everyday.

The Kiah Foundation

The Kiah Foundation is dedicated to Makiah Bartsch, who was diagnosed with hepato-blastoma at age four. Makiah fought beyond what we dreamed possible, enduring countless medicines, side effects and surgeries. She never lost her vigor for life and was determined to find pleasure and joy despite the constant pain. Makiah died 10 months after her diagnosis. We hope to honor her life and her fight by helping to fund research and clinical trials specific to childhood cancers. It is our desire to see increased survival rates as well as decreased lifelong side effects from current treatments. As our area (Helena, Montana) is not a hospital mecca, most families need to travel to find the best care. We also help with these travel costs for those families who need it by providing gas cards and meal cards. You can read more about our story at www.thekiahfoundation.net.

Deliver the Dream

Deliver the Dream helps families suffering from a serious illness or crisis. We organize monthly three-day retreats for families. Our program invites up to 15 families, free of charge, to one of our retreat locations. Each family that attends has a member - whether it’s a child or parent – living with an illness such as Cancer, Autism, HIV/AIDS or Cerebral Palsy. Our retreats allow families to relax, enjoy time together, forge new friendships and create support groups with the other families suffering from the same disease. When one person in a family is sick, the entire family is impacted and there are very few organizations nationwide that focus on the whole family unit like Deliver the Dream. To read more about our mission, go to www.deliverthedream.org.

Digs for Life

Universities and technical schools are available to give information concerning continuing their education or obtaining a GED. At the end of the day the mothers express how much they appreciate Sara’s House for showing them so much love and support. Many of the mothers would not have the means to bring their babies home from the hospital without this sponsored baby shower.

Today, Marc’s younger brother Peter continues what Marc began with Team M-Power. The Marc Mandeville Foundation was officially formed in May of 2011 with the following mission: We are saying "NO" to cancer. We strive to be part of something bigger than ourselves. We will, within the best of our abilities, continue our founder’s fight. We will support the our founder’s wishes to help ensure that anyone, and everyone has the knowledge, support, resources and ability to live life on their own terms and to be able to say "NO" to cancer. We welcome all who have lost someone to cancer, who know someone with cancer, who love someone with cancer, who care for someone with cancer and those who have not experienced cancer. We strive to do all we can, BECAUSE WE CAN, to see the day that cancer is a disease of history. We are human and survival is our most basic instinct. We will overcome through faith, attitude, family, courage and strength.
