Girl Power!
The girls on my volleyball team love to kick back and relax by hitting our local indoor climbing center. But this is NOTHING like going over the side of a very tall building!!!
As a group we are going Over The Edge. Help us raise the money we need to earn the right to participate in this cool event and help all the amazingly courageous kids supported by Make A Wish.
Help Get Me Over The Edge
I'm raising money for Make A Wish to help them deliver wishes to sick kids all across Canada. Help me raise at least $1500 for this great cause and you'll figuratively push me over the edge. Of a tall building. With a harness on. It will be fun. As long as I can get up the courage to do it!

The national 2018 Make-A-Wish® Rope for Hope fundraising goal is $1.5 million.
Make-A-Wish Rope for Hope is a unique challenge event that calls on participants to raise pledges in exchange for a once-in-a-lifetime experience to rappel down the edge of a high-profile building. All money raised by Make-A-Wish Rope for Hope rappellers goes to granting the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions in each respective local market.
Event participants will rappel alongside an amazing group of people including wish kids, wish parents, Make-A-Wish corporate supporters and volunteers. Participants are each required to raise a minimum of $1,500 to take part. Participants can take part in a variety of ways: as individuals, in teams, or as part of a colleague group.
Event Details: August 2, 2018 at the Hyatt Regency Vancouver
