Make a Wish Foundation
In 2017, we at Blok Pools became involved with Make-A-Wish, driven by our belief in its profound impact. As parents, aunts, uncles and grandparents, we understand the immense joy and hope that a special moment can bring to children. Those facing life-threatening conditions often find themselves in challenging situations, relying heavily, if not entirely, on the support of others. Our commitment to Make-A-Wish stems from the opportunity to illuminate their lives, even if only for a brief moment.
​
Over the years, we have proudly donated five hot tubs, with a total retail value of approximately $60,000. It has been our privilege to fulfill wishes not only in Pembroke but also in Ottawa, bringing joy to children in various communities. We would like to emphasize that our support for Make-A-Wish is rooted in our deep commitment to the well-being of children and the community.
Make-A-Wish excels at organizing meaningful unveilings for the children, complete with balloons, refreshments, and gifts for the child. To further our impact, we plan on increasing our contributions, not only financially but also through the gift of time. We aim to create a dedicated webpage that highlights our involvement, featuring donation links and testimonials for those who wish to join us in our efforts. It is difficult to convey the emotions experienced when witnessing brave children beaming with joy, as we provide them with that special moment filled with fun, happiness, and hope.
We look forward to seeing you at the next unveiling!
