  The Varieties Central Committee is proud to announce that beginning in 2003 it will be a sponsor of the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Iowa. In choosing a philanthropy, the committee looked for an organization with local impact, family values, and a strong sense of tradition to reflect that of Varieties. It is our hope that this relationship will be a long-lasting one with benefits for all those involved, most importantly the children whose wishes will be granted. Donations will be accepted at all Varieties performances, and 100% of the donations received will go to the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Iowa. There will be brochures available at the show as well if you would like to hear more about Make-A-Wish, or visit their website at http://www.iowawish.org.
