The holidays are all about kindness, connection, and a little bit of magic – and that’s exactly what the Magic 98 Holiday Wish is all about. This year, we’re teaming up with St. Vincent de Paul – Madison to help our neighbors in need. You’ll hear powerful stories from local families, stories of struggle, strength, and hope – and we think you’ll be inspired to make a difference too.

Here are some examples of how your generosity can help with even the most basic necessities this holiday season:

• $75 – Gives a portable crib to a baby to sleep soundly at night
• $133 – Covers the cost of one prescription for an uninsured patient
• $135 – Gives an air bed to a neighbor to sleep soundly at night
• $140 – Provides two-weeks of groceries for one family (pantry staples, meat, produce, bread, dairy)

Make a donation to the families of St. Vinny’s now – and join us in the true spirit of the season with Bergstrom Automotive, Lazy-Z-Boy Home Furnishings & Decor and Magic 98.
