Dr. Wise was recently involved in the KidSwing - McKinney Golf Tournament to benefit the Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children. The fundraiser was an enormous success, with 104 players, almost $20,000 raised and one girl raising $2,500 by herself! Wise & Stonebridge Orthodontics were a sponsor of the event, and here is what Dr. Wise, the chair of the fundraiser, had to say to the participants:
Dear Friends-
I wanted to thank you personally for entering your child in the recent KidSwing-McKinney Golf Tournament benefitting Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children. What a great day we had raising money for one of the greatest places on earth!! TSRHC never charges a patient for care, and they rely on events like these to make their hospital the best it can be.
So many people have been touched by TSRHC. Over the years, as I tell people about our fundraising efforts, they instantly light up and tell a great story about themselves or someone they know who was cared for there. It’s a wonderful thing to teach your children about the joys of giving back. Teamwork, community spirit and helping others- that’s what KidSwing is all about.
I hope you enjoyed your time with us last week. I know I enjoyed being the host and chairman of the event. Please plan on joining us next year for more fun in the sun. Once the date is set, we’ll reach out to you to let you know so you can plan your calendar. We want each year to get bigger and better, so make sure you tell your friends and neighbors all about it.
If any of you are interested in stepping up your involvement by participating on our adult or kid’s committee, please reply to this email or call us at the numbers listed below, and let us know. We’d be thrilled to have you on our team for next year.
See you soon. Keep smiling, and keep telling everyone about KidSwing!!!
Thanks again-
--Dr. John Wise
