As some of you may know, our own Order of the Marshal donates the proceeds from their ren faire demos to the Make-a-Wish foundation. I saw this today and wanted to share what a great organization Make-a-Wish is.

Saw it posted on Facebook, and yeah, that's incredible. Getting 10,000 volunteers is no small feat, that's for sure.
