A HALLAM company has helped make a few wishes come true for disadvantaged children.
Book company Lifetime Distributors donated more than $7400 towards the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
The money will go towards helping fund wishes, which will bring magic, joy and hope to the children – as well as their families – who are selected.
Employees recently gathered at the Hallam headquarters to present Make-A-Wish Foundation CEO Sandy Brattstrom with the money.
Lifetime officials said the cash was part of more than $1 million which the company had donated to Australian charities in recent years.
The company is operated by self-employed distributors, who leave books at offices, factories, schools and government buildings throughout the Geelong and Melbourne regions.
