This month on the
Metroplex Cadillac Dealers‘ FB page something exciting is happening:
Four Dallas-Fort Worth area charities are competing for a $50,000 ad budget prize…
the “losers” are going home with money too.
- Big Thought
- The Family Place
- Make-A-Wish North Texas
- Heroes for Children
YOU can help choose the winner by voting in the Cadillac Cares Challenge (and you can vote daily).
This is all such a win-win situation and thought it would be fun to highlight each charity here on She is Dallas over the next week with a little “lobbying” from DFW bloggers who support each cause.
Today we are going to take a closer look at the incredible charity,
Make-A-Wish North Texas Chapter.
Make-A-Wish’s mission is: ย
We grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy.
The North Texas Chapter grants more than 300 wishes a year. ย They also assist other chapters with arrangements for wishes being granted in this area. ย Overall, Make-A-Wish makes 12,000 wishes come true a year across the nation.

Wish Kid.
If you have been reading my blog for any amount of time then you know how deep my love for the Make-a-Wish Foundation runs!
My daughter was a Wish kid and her Wish trip was truly a blessing for our family. ย We not only take part in the yearly 5K local to us but we also participate in many activities throughout the year. ย We have developed a close relationship with several of the Make-a-Wish Foundation workers. ย The whole organization is just amazing!

Alyson who writes
3Ps in a Pod also supports Make-A-Wish of North Texas. ย She writes about The Wishing Place.
The Wishing Place is in Las Colinas. The Wishing Place heightens the power and delight of a child's wish experience and deepens the joy and comfort we provide to the child's family when they come to the area for medical treatment.
YOU can support Make-A-Wish North Texas by clicking through to the
Cadillac Cares Challenge and casting a vote.
