Hey Warriors! We finished counting all of those dollar bills and coins that you donated for Wish Week and the grand total is a whopping $11,497.01!!!! Terrific job, Arapahoe – this is a Wish Week record! Since our goal was to raise $8,000 for Cayle to have a hot tub, not only did we make one amazing girl’s wish come true, but all the extra money we raised will help grant even more wishes because we will donate every cent of the $11,497.01 that we raised to the Make a Wish Foundation! Thanks again, Warriors for all of your incredible generosity!
