The Salisbury FBLA sponsors an annual donation campaign. The non profit organization that we have chosen this year is the Make-A-Wish Kids foundation. All donations received from this campaign will go to the Greater Pennsylvania and West Virginia division of Make-A-Wish Kids. Make-A-Wish-Kids is a non-profit organization that grants life changing wishes to children with critical illnesses. The Make-A-Wish Organization was founded in 1980 in Phoenix, Arizona. Make-A-Wish has granted over 550,000 wishes across 50 countries and six continents. In the United States there are 59 chapters and over 35,000 volunteers. There are collection containers in both the elementary and high school offices from March 11 to the 22. Also, the elementary classroom that raises the most donations will earn a prize. The FBLA thanks everyone that can help for their support!

Please contact Mrs. Easton or Mrs. Wilson for more information or to register for this event.
