Beth Clark Memorial Birthday Bash

We are Jeff and Nancy Clark, and we are long-time volunteers and supporters of Make-A-Wish Greater Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Our daughter Elizabeth, or Beth as we called her, was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Disease when she was nine years old. She had two bone marrow transplants following her diagnosis and unfortunately passed away from complications in December of 1988 at the age of 11. In 1987, she had her wish to visit Disney World where our family was able to visit relatives and enjoy the time when Beth was cancer-free. We have been supporting the mission ever since because of the way Make-A-Wish treats the family, not just the wish child. They provided smiles and lasting memories and each year we try to do the same for others by giving back in Beth's name. 

This year, we are holding a virtual fundraiser that will celebrate Beth’s 49th heavenly birthday on July 25th, with donations to benefit Make-A-Wish August 11th, Erie Gives Day. We can think of no better way to celebrate than to raise funds for this vital organization. Since we began fundraising in 2017, over $80,000 has been raised to support local wishes. With your help, we can assist Make-A-Wish in their mission to provide even more joy for more children and families who are experiencing the inexplicable. We ask that you donate whatever you can - a little bit can go a long way.
