INVERNESS HOTEL & GOLF CLUB BECOMES A HOLIDAY WISH MAKER
Percentage of December Room Revenue Pledged to Make-A-Wish Foundation? of Colorado

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. ? In the spirit of holiday giving, Inverness Hotel & Golf Club will donate a percentage of December room revenues to the Make-A-Wish? Foundation of Colorado ? helping to make every guest a part of granting a critically ill child?s wish. The resort is financially committed to reach the organization?s ??Wish Maker? level of $3,500 or more, expecting to make a larger contribution based on room revenues and the extra generosity of its guests who are being encouraged to make individual donations.

The mission of the Make-A-Wish? Foundation of Colorado is to grant wishes to Colorado children who are fighting life-threatening medical conditions, enriching the human experience with hope, strength and joy. Since it was founded 17 years ago, the state chapter has helped more than 1,350 children realize their dreams. From a trip to Disneyworld or a new computer to meeting a famous actor or swimming with dolphins, Make-A-Wish? gives children and their families a carefree experience, a respite from hospitals and clinics, medications and treatments, emotional fatigue and medical expenses.

?This is our way for our staff and guests to share their good fortune of happiness and health,? said Maureen Callahan, director of sales and marketing. ?We whole-heartedly support Make-A-Wish? because we know that making a dream come true for a child with a terminal illness or life-threatening medical condition has benefits that reach far beyond the immediate pleasure of the moment.?

?Wish Makers? fund the total cost of one or more wishes, and can choose from a selection of pending wishes to create a personal connection with their beneficiaries. For more information about the Make-A-Wish? Foundation of Colorado, please call 303-750-9474 or toll-free in-state 1-800-399-9474.
