2.63 Miles for Wishes
Trailblaze Junior was born out of the desire to help children be a part of raising vital funds for Make-A-Wish Alabama. An offshoot of the Trailblaze Challenge, our chapter's largest fundraising event, Trailblaze Junior, is a hiking and fundraising event for participants ages 16 and younger. The young hikers will train to hike 2.63 miles, all while spreading awareness and raising funds for Make-A-Wish Alabama.
Together, this new generation of Trailblazers will work together to give the gift of hope to children with critical illnesses in Alabama. Join us!

Charlotte, 5
"Children like Charlotte need a wish because it gives them hope … It made her forget about the bad times, living in the hospital, the needles, the pain, the teas — it gave her the hope that we couldn't. To have this wish made her believe that there is good to be found in the world, too."
Estela, Charlotte’s mom

David, 13
"The wish has brought so much joy to David's life. He now has something he can look forward to every morning. He can physically touch it, hold it and see it, and that brings him so much hapiness."
