Hi Friends!

As many of you already know, I’ve been very lucky to participate in Bert’s Big Adventure throughout the last few years and I hold the organization close to my heart. If you’re not familiar, Bert’s Big Adventure is a non-profit organization that provides an all-expenses-paid, spectacular five-day journey to Walt Disney World® for children with a chronic and/or terminal illness and their families.

The trip is not just a vacation, it allows them to establish lasting friendships with others facing similar challenges and enjoy the gift of intimate family time together where the focus turns from living with an illness to making magical moments.

With the 10th Anniversary Trip in February of 2012, Polished PR has set a goal to raise $4,000 by February 1st, 2012… enough to sponsor each little girl with a VIP adventure to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique– a beauty salon at the Cinderella Castle where little girls are magically transformed into little princesses. Check out the videos below to see the magic!

 

We need your help! Please consider helping us reach our goal by making a donation. We know money doesn’t grow on trees, so please don’t hesitate to host internal/personal fundraisers, including but not limited to bake sales, change drives, happy hours, auctions and more.

Every dollar you give will help provide a child with a terminal or chronic illness, along with their family, magical moments in Walt Disney World and an adventure that could not otherwise be afforded. I hope that you’ll share this incredible adventure with us by supporting Polished Public Relations’ fundraising efforts for Bert’s Big Adventure.

Thank you,
