Within our western region community we are thrilled to honor and remember the infamous Malachi. What a beautiful spirit he was, touching every single person he met.
Join us at Jackson Park on Friday, October 13th to walk in memory of wish kid, Malachi. We will begin the walk at 4:30pm creating inspirational signs to get started. Together we will walk on the path to Patton Park and celebrate the life that meant so much to many.
Wish kids are some of the bravest and sweetest kids you’ll ever know. Some wishes are extravangant and unique, others are simple and touching. Malachi’s wish was to go to Savannah/Tybee Island to spend time with the individuals that loved him more than anyone.
Please help by contributing to this fundraiser. Every dollar counts and makes a difference not only in the wish kid’s life but in their entire families.
Thank you for your support!
