AMARILLO, Texas (KFDA) – Amarillo Area McDonald’s presented a check for nearly $8,000 to Make-A-Wish Texas Panhandle today.
The funds were raised during the recent McDonald’s Gives Back Day, a promotion where a portion of the sales at McDonald’s locations in Amarillo, Canyon, Dumas, Dalhart and Borger went to benefit Make-A-Wish.
“We have 30 plus kids on the waitlist at Make-A-Wish, and these dollars today will go to grant one, if not two of the wishes for kids in and around the Panhandle region struggling with critical illness,” said Britton Wells, Texas Panhandle Regional Development Council Chair at Make-A-Wish. “So, this is a big check for us, and it will change lives without a doubt.”…
