“Block Party to benefit Make-A-Wish®
Connecticut Saturday November 9th at Fairfield Ludlowe High School”
Hosted by the b-Cause Foundation, the annual Block Party will be back in
Fairfield again this year to benefit
Make-A-Wish Connecticut and the b-Cause Foundation. The mission of Make-A-Wish
is to grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to
enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy.
The Block Party will take place on Saturday November 9th from
10AM until 4PM at Fairfield Ludlowe High School in Fairfield. The event will feature
all sorts of different LEGO® creations built by children in the
local community and by LEGO® Builders. All are welcome to come out
for the exciting display of LEGO® brick masterpieces, workshops with
expert brick builders, arts & crafts activities, a LEGO®
Boutique and even a “Sparkle & Shine” station for the young ladies. Wish
kids and families from Make-A-Wish will also be present to display their
creations with pride.
Admission is $5 and proceeds benefit Make-A-Wish and the b-Cause
Foundation.

About
Make-A-Wish® Connecticut
The
Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Connecticut grants the wishes of children
with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with
hope, strength and joy. Wish-come-true
experiences can do wonders by providing a much-needed break from lengthy
hospital stays and medical treatments. They give back to a child what a serious
medical condition can take away—the chance to simply enjoy being a kid, choose
something that will inspire happiness, and spend precious time with their
families. The Connecticut chapter has made over 2,300 wishes come true since
its inception in 1986. Learn more about Connecticut wishes at www.ct.wish.org, or join Make-A-Wish on
Facebook (search Make-A-Wish Connecticut).
