Give meaning to the season of giving with The Rainbow Connection
WXYZ-TV — Food, football, family and friends are Thanksgiving favorites — but finding ways to give thanks is sometimes left off the menu.
The Rainbow Connection is serving up a chance for you to give meaning to the season with an invitation to support Michigan children facing life-threatening illnesses.
Mark your calendar for the Celebration of Dreams on Sunday, November 24 at The Palazzo Grande in Shelby Township.
Your ticket to holiday cheer features dinner, entertainment, raffles and a silent auction. The highlight of the night will be watching Wish Children light up with joy as they strut the runway for their annual fashion show. While each child shows off their style and smile, the audience will have the privilege of learning their personal stories.
The magic continues long after the night ends. Every dollar from Celebration of Dreams will be used to help the Rochester-based nonprofit further its mission of granting wishes to kids who sometimes spend more time in treatment than on playgrounds.
If you can't make it to the Celebration of Dreams, you can still participate in the raffle and silent auction or make a donation of any size at any time.
The Rainbow Connection has granted more than 4,300 wishes since 1985, starting with Muhammad Ali shadow boxing 16-year-old John Bowden at Children's Hospital.
