MakeAWish

Together, we make Christmas Wishes come true!!

We hope that our display has brought joy to you and your family!

People have asked if they could give money to help support the display. In the true spirit of Christmas, we want to use this display to bring good fortune to someone who is less fortunate.

Therefore, we have decided to collect donations from this display to Adopt Wishes from the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of South Dakota. What a better way to encompass the spirit of Christmas than to make a Child's dream come true!

For each wish, we need to raise approximately $5,000. For those who choose to help us in this endeavor, we will place a donation box just in front of the Radio sign in our display. If it's too cold outside to get out of your car, you can also participate online! Clicking the below button will allow you to donate through Paypal. A paypal account is not required and Credit Cards are accepted!

Since 2006, Crooks Christmas has raised over $96,000 for the kids at Make-A-Wish!
