Friends and family members from the community supported the two brothers in their efforts to help raise funds for Wish Kids, whose lives are challenged with life-threatening illnesses. As a way to make these children’s lives a bit brighter, Christian, Ruben and their friends raised $275 in cash pledges from supporters, $844.76 in the sale of baked goods and $113.66 in change drive funds. In total, the boys managed to raise an impressive $1,233.42.
