“We are honored to help the Make a Wish Foundation exceed its fundraising goals,” stated Anthony Nurse, Charity Fundraising Director of AutographStore.com. “The driving force behind Autograph Store Charity Fundraising is being able to help incredible causes like Make A Wish. It touches us that our autographed collectibles helped raised funds to provide joyful experiences for children fighting life-threatening illnesses,” Mr. Nurse said.

Since the organization’s founding in 1980, the Make a Wish Foundation has granted over 178,000 children’s wishes. The foundation started its wish granting program by helping 7 year old Christopher James Greicius, who suffered from leukemia, to become the first honorary patrolman with the Arizona Department of Public Safety. Over the last three decades the Make a Wish Foundation has been able to touch the lives of thousands of children, families, volunteers and donors who believe that it’s possible to bring hope and joy through making dreams come true.

It’s easy to get started with Autograph Store’s Charity Fundraising Program. Charitable organizations consult with Autograph Store and select signed photos and collectibles http://charityfundraising.autographstore.com/charity_top_items.cfm that will appeal to their audience. Autograph Store then beautifully displays, packages and ships the items to the organization so that they are ready for the fundraiser. The charitable organization auctions the items and any money raised over the items’ reserve price is profit for the charity.
