Make-a-Wish Walk & Run 2011
Badger Mutual Insurance Company
has been a presenting sponsor for the Walk and
Run for Wishes since 2001. This year’s run was
held on Saturday, August 27, 2011 along
Milwaukee’s beautiful scenic lakefront. Over
2,800 participants from all over the state of
Wisconsin participated in this annual signature
event making it a record year.
Forty
wishes will be granted from the proceeds raised
by all the teams and individuals participating
in the 5K or one mile walk, certified run,
wheelchair race and kid’s dash. Every wish
granted provides the wish child and family with
hope, strength and joy during difficult times.
We hope you enjoy our
slideshow
and we thank everyone for joining us at the Walk
and Run for Wishes and sharing in the power of a
wish.

Mutual Insurance Company is very proud of our association
with the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Wisconsin. This year we
were honored to be the recipient of the 2011 W.I.S.H.
(Winner in Sharing Happiness) Award. We thank Make-A-Wish
for this award. While we have assisted in granting more than
100 wishes, we couldn’t have done this without our caring
employees, their families, friends, our Board of Directors
and all the staff at Make-A-Wish.
We have been a partner with Make-A-Wish
Foundation of Wisconsin since 2000 and look forward to
continuing our support and involvement in making wishes come
true.
