" A Weekend of Wishes"


          


              Tamye Haugen, Founder & CEO is calling for what she is referring to as " A Weekend of Wishes" to celebrate the success of granting the first wish posted to the group.  It all started with Tamye Haugen wanting to provide a safe place for local area people to come to when they were down and out, feeling as if they had no-one and no-where to turn to. She wanted to provide them with friendship, advice and referrals to get help with the things that they needed. Most of all she just wanted other people who have experienced many of the same heartbreaks and struggles as she had in their lives a friendly place to turn too and show them that there is somebody who cares. 
 Tamye cares.

            Well caring indeed she does so much so that her creating a Facebook group with the hope of reaching a small group of locals has taken not just her local community but the nation by storm. She is inspiring others far and wide with her group and her giving heart to Pay It Forward and to help others in need. She has been contacted by individuals from other states wanting to manage their own Paying It Forward Wishes & Heroes page and is in the process of  what she has been heard referring to as our expansion.  With close to 3,000 members and 300 wishes granted in just 7 weeks I wouldn't be  surprised in the least bit if this small community help group she created ends up groups in all 50 states by sometime next year.  I can definitely see why she wants to celebrate with " A Weekend of Wishes"Tamye Haugen,  Founder & CEO, Vice President Eddie Rachowitz and their administrative team that includes Nicki Fahey, Lisa Brislane, Kristen Frazier & Jodi Stone have been working overtime to make this " Weekend of Wishes" a reality. 

           Our " Weekend of Wishes" will start off by Surprising a soldier and his fiance who had to postpone their upcoming wedding due to him getting the news that he is getting redeployed with a romantic evening they can cherish and remember while he is away. The evening will start out with them being picked up in a limousine courtesy of  Stretch Limo Chicago and will be brought to McFadden's Chicago for dinner and then whisked away to The Essence Suites in Orland Park.
Meanwhile while this couple is out on their romantic date, a group of volunteers will be going to a members home and giving a family who has next to nothing a complete home makeover with the Surprise reveal on Saturday morning, followed by us preparing and getting ready to grant our first wish ever with an anniversary party complete with a Firepro Wrestling Match to grant a terminally ill's couple last wish, we will also be surprising the  with tickets to Monday Night Raw the following evening with a meet and greet schedules for them to meet in person the WWE Superstars. 
These are just a few of the bigger wishes that Paying It Forward Wishes & Heroes will be granting this weekend but doesn't even begin to touch upon all of the wonderful everyday wishes that our members help to grant on a daily basis bringing our 7 week total to over 300 wishes granted and it all began with one woman's simple wish to help others in anyway that she can and grew with the love, dedication and hard work of the administrative team and members making Paying It Forward Wishes and Heroes a blessing to others.
