April 26, 2014, Irvine California Southern California Material Handling (SCMH) walked to help fulfill wishes of children battling life-threatening medical conditions. Represented by 16 volunteers, Team SCMH trekked the Great OC Park alongside numerous volunteers from institutions within the Orange County and Inland Empire.

Through the inspiring stories of SCMH Warranty Supervisor Mike Rossoff—who has been an active Make-A-Wish volunteer lead for 11 years— COO Mike Wolfe and Sr. HR Generalist Gabby Duran led the campaign to raise funds enabling SCMH to join Walk for Wishes. With the generosity of the employees, their families, and friends plus a successful bake sale, SCMH exceeded its target.

Make a Wish Foundation is an international non-profit organization formed in 1980 after granting Chris Greicieus’ wish of becoming a police officer. Shortly after his wishes were fulfilled by stangers who pulled resources together, Chris lost his battle to leukemia at the age of seven.
