Saturday, November 13th, 2004 was an exciting evening for Wishes & More It was the Founders Kick-Off event held at Tom Reid's Hockey City Pub in St. Paul. The event was held from 4:00PM until midnight, and brought in supporters from all walks of life. We had celebrities, former wish children, Wishes & More volunteers, and hundreds of caring folks that care enough to bring Wishes & More to fruition. Guests also donated to the organization and many of the donors gave enough to qualify for our Founders Plaques. These engraved plaques designate our Founding Donors who have donated $250, $1,000, $5,000, $10,000, and $25,000. An individual or company’s donations will be tracked for the next year and the nameplates will move to the higher-level plaque as their donations are received. They will be on permanent display at the Wishes & More office. Former First Lady of Minnesota, Terry Ventura, presented Wishes & More with a check for $10,000 from the Jade Foundation. She has been a great supporter of wish granting in Minnesota over many years and we look forward to her continued support. Thanks, Terry
