Hitmen Fundraising to Benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Illinois

The Quad City Hitmen recently concluded a fundraising effort to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Illinois. The combined efforts of the Hitmen's Hit-A-Thon and the Brian P Rangel Memorial Golf Classic raised enough money to grant three wishes for children with life-threatening medical conditions. Our original goal was to be able to grant one wish. The average cost of each wish is $7000 per wish. Way to go Hitmen!
