Transwestern today announces it raised more than $13,000 for Make-A-Wish® Mid-Atlantic. The funds will go toward granting wishes for children with life-threatening medical conditions.

“We’re so proud to support Make-A-Wish and help advance its mission of creating extraordinary experiences for sick children and their families,” said Keith Foery, executive managing director and market leader of Transwestern’s Mid-Atlantic region.

Transwestern team members coordinated several fundraisers, including casual dress days, where team members could wear jeans to the office in exchange for a donation; a partnership with a food truck at a Transwestern-managed property, where a portion of the food truck’s profits were donated; and a tie competition between two Transwestern Management Services team members, Assistant Vice President Colin Diefenbach and Vice President Jonathan Grover, who each wore a different neck tie every day until their inventory of ties was depleted.

Transwestern announced a national partnership with Make-A-Wish in February. As part of that partnership, Transwestern’s 34 offices around the U.S. have held a variety of fundraisers to benefit the organization.

ABOUT MAKE-A-WISH® MID-ATLANTIC

Make-A-Wish grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy. Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic serves children who reside in central and southern Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland and northern Virginia. Founded in 1983, the Mid-Atlantic chapter has granted more than 8,800 wishes in the Mid-Atlantic region since its inception. This year alone, 840 local children are expected to be diagnosed with a life-threatening medical condition. However, for every wish granted, at least two more local children are waiting. The community has the opportunity to make an impact today by helping Make-A-Wish to reach hundreds of kids whose wishes would go otherwise unanswered this year.
