BOWS DONATED TO HELP SUPPORT ORGANIZATION’S BIGGEST FUNDRAISER OF THE YEAR
EVANSVILLE, IN – Bear Archery is proud to announce its partnership with One Wish Foundation as the “Official Bow of the One Wish Foundation.”
The One Wish Foundation is a non-profit organization that provides children with life-altering medical or social conditions the opportunity to experience a once-in-a-lifetime outdoor adventure. The organization coordinates, participates, and captures each family's experience on video to preserve their adventure forever and share their story with the world with the purpose of helping them and other families through awareness and support.
“We are beyond excited to partner with such a legendary company like Bear Archery,” says TJ Bebb, Ambassador at The One Wish Foundation. “The values and ethics Fred Bear started this company with, align directly with our mission!”
Bear Archery’s donated bows will be included in a silent auction at the organizations largest fundraising event of the year, Operation One Wish VII. The annual event includes dinner, music entertainment, gift basket raffles, and silent auctions. The organization is composed of 100% volunteers and all proceeds go back to the organization’s mission.
“We are honored to support the One Wish Foundation,” says Dave Parker, Archery General Manager. “The sport of archery and experience of bowhunting can help give a child an escape from the daily rigors, treatments, and obstacles involved with a critical illness by enjoying the great outdoors and all that it provides.”
