ABC CARES

ABC Greater Michigan members are deeply committed to their communities, consistently demonstrating a spirit of support and generosity. Through volunteering, fundraising, and local partnerships, they actively engage in projects that improve the quality of life for others. From hosting charity events and helping to raise money for non-profits in the community to supporting youth programs and championing safety initiatives, ABC members are dedicated to making a positive impact. Their involvement goes beyond business—they invest their time and resources to uplift communities, embodying a culture of care and service in all they do. The following are areas they are getting involved with their community: Great Lakes Bay Regional Fundraiser to Benefit Make-a-Wish, raising funds to the Alzheimer’s Association – Great Lakes Bay Region (see pictures below), and ABC’s Emerging Leaders raising money for the Great Lakes Bay Veterans Foundation (pictured below).

ABC Greater Michigan Chapter is holding its 40th Annual GLB Regional Make-A-Wish Fundraiser

Associated Builders and Contractors, Greater Michigan is celebrating 40 years hosting this annual event. We’re proud to partner with community leaders and businesses raising more than $709,350 to allow for wishes to be granted to 90+ local children. The 2027 GLB Regional Fundraiser benefiting Make-A-Wish Michigan will be held, Friday, April 16, 2027, at The Great Hall in Midland starting at 6:00 pm. Guests will enjoy a relaxing reception upon arrival, followed by delicious food, a brief program about Make-A-Wish, silent and live auctions, and a live performance by Jedi Mind Trip. We will also host a few past Wish recipients as honorary guests! Funds raised from this event will be used to sponsor the wishes of children in the Great Lakes Bay Region who are bravely facing their health challenges.

Stay up to date on event news by following our Facebook Page.

Join us for a red-carpet-worthy evening! Guests are encouraged to dress in shades of ruby red and shimmering gold as we celebrate 40 unforgettable years of wishes and hope.

The granting of wishes can change the odds for children fighting their illness. A wish granting helps kids look past their limitations, families overcome anxiety and entire communities experience more joy. Most importantly, wishes can improve a child’s quality of life. Life-changing wishes start with you. To experience the power of gifting hope, join us at the event, sponsor the fundraiser, donate an item for auction or provide a direct monetary donation.
