ikekeyclub - Sleep In A Box

The Aftermath:

Sleep In A Box went very well! We Raised over 300 dollars for the Make-A-Wish foundation and had fun doing it. We ate pizza, listened to the band, played board games, watched a movie, played basketball, and pretty much had an awesome time!

Just one of our MANY games of Guesstures.

Sleep

We all need it.

Everyone enjoys their share of it.

Nobody can seem to get enough of it.

So how would you like to sleep and fundraise simultaneously?

The Sleep In A Box Fundraiser date is still being decided on but one thing is for sure, it will be from 8 p.m. until 8 in the a.m. From what I've heard, I assume that you will spend the twelve hours in a cardboard box in order to make money. You must raise at least $25 by the end of the night. All proceeds benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation, whose goal is to "grant wishes" to children with life-threatening medical conditions. The child whose wish we will be contributing to is Nathan and his wish is to ride in a limo from the airport to Disney World. At the fundraiser, there will be contests including "the most-creative box contest," karaoke, games, and possibly some bands...LOTS AND LOTS OF AWESOME STUFF. You may not want to sleep at this event; you'll miss all the fun.

As easy as it is to sleep, why wouldn't you want to help a child's wish come true?

Exactly.

That's why we hope to see you there!

About the Make-A-Wish Foundation:

Since 1980, the Make-A-Wish Foundation^® has enriched the lives of children with life-threatening medical conditions through its wish-granting work. The Foundation's mission reflects the life-changing impact that a Make-A-Wish^® experience has on children, families, referral sources, donors, sponsors and entire communities.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation was founded in 1980 after a little boy named Chris Greicius realized his heartfelt wish to become a police officer. Since its humble beginnings, the organization has blossomed into a worldwide phenomenon, reaching more than 144,000 children around the world.

Although it has become one of the world's most well-known charities, the Make-A-Wish Foundation has maintained the grassroots fulfillment of its mission.

A network of more than 25,000 volunteers enable the Make-A-Wish Foundation to serve children with life-threatening medical conditions. Volunteers serve as wish granters, fundraisers, special events assistants and in numerous other capacities.

As the Foundation continues to mature, its mission will remain steadfast. Wish children of the past, present and future will have an opportunity to share the power of a wish^®.
