Make a Wish Gifts
Your holidays will sparkle even brighter when you give
a gift that helps make children’s wishes come true.
This year, Things Remembered offers a collectible holiday
ornament, musical snow globe and star keepsake box --
all benefiting the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
Make-A-Wish gifts became a tradition at Things Remembered
in 1998 when one critically ill child, Elysia, wished
to give her family and friends personalized ornaments
saying “Thank you, I love you, and always remember me.”
Her single wish has grown into an annual program that
allows the wishes of children across the nation to come
true.
If you’ve got something to say this holiday, Make-A-Wish
items can be engraved with your own special message.
They are available at Things Remembered stores nationwide
and online at www.thingsremembered.com.
Make-A-Wish Holiday Ornament
Made of genuine pewter, the heart-shaped ornament is
bejeweled with red and white Swarovski crystals and
tied with an organza bow. Available for $17.95, $2 from
the sale of each limited edition ornament helps grant
the fondest wishes of children with life-threatening
medical conditions.
Make-A-Wish Musical Holiday Snow Globe
The Make-A-Wish holiday snow globe winds up to play
“Twelve Days of Christmas.” Inside the glass dome is
a jolly scene of two adorable snowmen and a sack full
of goodies. Two dollars from the sale of each holiday
snow globe also goes to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
The snow globe retails for $24.95.
Make-A-Wish Star Keepsake Box
An enchanting Star Keepsake Box with inspirational wishing
stones is the first-ever, year-round Make-A-Wish gift
from Things Remembered. The brushed silver-plated keepsake
box can be engraved with a personal message. Inside,
five lovely wishing stars are inscribed with the words
“Peace, Hope, Love, and Dreams,” with the fifth star
adorned with the Make-A-Wish logo. Brilliant Swarovski
crystals glitter on each of the star’s five points.
Equally brilliant, $5 from each sale benefits the Make-A-Wish
Foundation. The Star Keepsake Box is available for $34.95.
According to Suzanne Sutter, president of Things Remembered,
this sixth holiday season of distinctive Make-A-Wish
gifts will bring the total amount raised for the foundation
to well over $1 million.
“It is our privilege to carry on this wonderful tradition
in honor of Elysia’s memory,” states Sutter. “We’re
pleased to be partners with the Make-A-Wish Foundation
in its efforts of bringing hope, strength, and joy into
the lives of children with life-threatening medical
conditions.”
