Help Jackson Therapy Partners Make-A-Wish Come True This Holiday Season!

 Each Thanksgiving, families around the nation participate in the tradition of breaking apart the turkey wishbone --- two people each take one end of the bone, make a wish, and pull. Whoever ends up with the larger part of the bone gets their wish! In the spirit of that tradition, Jackson Therapy Partners is collecting donations for Make-A-Wish Foundation of America® to make wishes come true through the JTP Wishbone Project!  

Since 1980, Make-A-Wish Foundation of America has enriched the lives of children with life-threatening medical conditions through its wish-granting efforts. For more information on Make-A-Wish, visit http://www.wish.org/. 

  

**Therapists who donate $75 or more, will be entered in a drawing to win a $500 Visa Gift Card!
