Wigo de Mayo is an annual fundraiser to help raise awareness for children suffering Cancer. All proceeds go directly to the brave little warriors battling cancer at Boston Children’s Hospital. Joe Bartell’s family was personally affected by this disease when his niece Meghan was diagnosed with Stage 3 Wilms Cancer in 2008. We are happy to report that since 2009 Meghan has been in remission and she is now a happy, healthy, energetic little girl! Since then we have kept the fundraising efforts going for other children with cancer. We would like to keep the momentum we have seen in the past continue. However, in order for us to help other kids like Meghan, we need your help... Each year at Wigo de Mayo we host a raffle as a part of our effort to raise money, in the past we have had great success with a wide variety of donations. I am reaching out to you to help us find those items, either through personal connections or your workplace. Previously donated items have included: tickets to shows/sporting events/movies, sports memorabilia, gift baskets, frequent flyer miles, travel points, handmade items, spa services, car services, gift cards, etc... We will include anything in our raffle! So please, if you have the time, resources and desire to donate let us know! We will be happy to pick the item(s) up or reimburse you for postage. Thank you in advance for any minute you spend helping us, or better yet, the children at Boston Children's Hospital!
