Make-A-Wish New Mexico is asking for the tourism industry’s support in the 2019 charity event, which helps the organization provide life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses across the state. 

“At our annual Wine & Wishes event, we host both a silent and live auction.  We love to provide New Mexico experiences at the event for participants to bid on.  Ski packages, golf outings and hotel stays are always popular,” President & CEO of Make-A-Wish New Mexico, Sara Lister, told NMTD. 

This year Wine & Wishes will be held on Friday, April 12, 2019 at the Balloon Fiesta Golf and Event Center at 6 p.m. in Albuquerque.

If your destination would like to donate vouchers/packages or items to Make-A-Wish New Mexico, please contact Shelbie Franc at 505-888-9474 or sfranc@newmexico.wish.org before March 22, 2019. 

Make-A-Wish New Mexico says its vision is to reach every eligible child in the Land of Enchantment and the funds raised in New Mexico to support Make-A-Wish stay in New Mexico. 

The event draws 300+ guests each year and in the weeks leading up to the event the organization highlights the auction items on it’s social media platforms and tags the donors of the items.
