Hear first hand how Make•A•Wish made an Owasso teen Brendan Poindexter’s dream come true:
Information from KRMG:
Now in its 12th year, Stories of Light® is a 32-hour radiothon and the largest annual fundraiser for Make-A-Wish Oklahoma. KRMG’s Morning News Host Dan Potter and KRMG’s Evening News host Dick Loftin will broadcast live from LaFortune Park each day. Hear heartwarming and inspiring stories from Wish Kids and their families. These stories serve as inspiration and motivation for KRMG listeners and the community to contribute to Make-A-Wish Oklahoma. Wish stories from children whose wishes have already been granted are told over the radio. These stories are very dramatic and compelling to the listening audience.
In addition, on Thursday, November 16th from 6am to 6pm you can drop your cash, check or credit card donation by Reasor’s at one of these locations: 41st & Peoria in Tulsa, 111th and Memorial in Bixby, 86th Street North and Hwy 169 in Owasso, Elm and the Creek Turnpike in Jenks, 71st and Lynn Lane in Broken Arrow or 1000 West Will Rogers in Claremore. Members of the police departments from Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Jenks, Owasso, Bixby and Claremore will be on hand on Thursday to help with the fund-raising efforts.
Donations generated from Stories of Light® enable Make-A-Wish Oklahoma to grant wishes to Oklahoma children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy.
Make-A-Wish Oklahoma was formed in 1982 and has granted close to 2,800 wishes since its inception. The chapter is funded through donations from individuals, corporations, school groups, foundations and community organizations.
