About Us

About Us

Who We Are

Our chapter originated at the University of Wisconsin - Madison in 2017. With over 50 members, we work to reach children everywhere in the Wisconsin, northern Illinois, and eastern Minnesota. We are proud to partner with Gilda's Club of Madison, The Friendship Circle, American Family Children Hospitals, the Children's Hospital of Wisconsin, and the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. 

Our mission is to spread a little magic wherever we go! We want to give students at the University of Wisconsin the opportunity to make a difference in the life of a child in a unique and fun way. All kids deserve to have magical moments, and we hope to create as many as we can. We are restoring the magic of being a kid and reminding kids to be

Brave, Strong, and Fearless.

Hope for the Holidays: Giving Thanks

Hope for the Holidays is our annual fundraiser in which we say thanks to all of our supporters for their help this past year. All donations, monetarily or otherwise, allow us to reach so many children and bring so much magic across Wisconsin, Michigan and northern Illinois! 

This year's celebration will take place on December 9th at Varsity Hall III in Union South from 6pm-10pm. The theme for this year is "A Royal Thanks", complete with a 50/50 raffle, silent auction, trivia, guest speakers, food, an cocktail bar, and much more. 

You can secure your ticket for the event here!
