The 14th Annual Matt Morgan Walk for Wishes will be held on Thursday, March 25, 2021 at Lake Eola.

Powered by wish kids and families, volunteers, donors, corporate sponsors and friends, Walk For Wishes is a nationwide Make-A-Wish® signature fundraiser that celebrates the thousands of wishes that have already been granted, while raising funds for future wishes.

Your support as a walker, team leader or sponsor will not only help us grant close to 300 more wishes this year, you will provide what every child deserves: a moment to just be a child. A moment to dream, laugh, play and be free of a routine of doctors, hospitals and treatment. Together, we create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. Wishes have the power to provide hope, strength and joy. The average cost of a wish is $8,000. The impact of a wish is priceless.

Wildfire Prevention knowledge analyst, CrowdDoing Volunteer
Prevention derivatives is driven by the thesis that there is an under-valuation of passive risk (or the cost of inaction) and an under-prioritization of positive risk. Correspondingly for wildfires as an example, there is an under-recognition of the potential shared value upside of preventative action through social innovation and social interventions (such as goats & sheep that prevent wildfires). CrowdDoing.world's aim is to guarantee positive risk through leveraging existing liabilities to allow for the implications of prescriptive analytics to be financed. The under-pricing of passive risk means that liabilities are treated as either costs of doing business or un-predictable risks even for entirely preventable risks. Risk management offices have been too biased towards avoiding taking the wrong risks rather than ensuring that institutions make their own luck by seizing the abundant positive risk opportunities in social innovation. Meanwhile, the bias against positive risk leaves social innovations not to get adopted even if there would be remarkable benefits to all stakeholders if they were adopted
