Make-A-Wish A Success

Congratulations to each Ford Truck Owner and sponsors who supported the Make-A-Wish Northern Alberta Foundation at the ‪#‎ABF150GWR‬ Guinness World Record Attempt! One child’s wish will be fulfilled because of YOUR efforts after raising a total of $12,524!  

Make-A-Wish A Success

The Ford truck drivers from British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan came together Saturday July 2nd in Sherwood Park, Alberta for a good cause for Make-A-Wish.  They had hoped to make it into the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest parade of Ford trucks, but fell short.  However the aim to fulfill a child’s wish through Make-A-Wish Northern Alberta was successful!

Volunteer Organizers Gavin Packwood and Bill Armstrong presented the cheque to Jen Garden, Make-A-Wish Development and Events Coordinator.

180 Ford trucks gathered at the Bethel Transit Terminal in Sherwood Park for the day.  The weather was great for the event and included food from local vendors and music too!

Here’s a video recap of the events that took place throughout the day.

THANK YOU to all the truck owners who attended to support Make-A-Wish!
