Truck Center Companies’ CEO Trey Mytty had previously set a goal of reaching $3 million in lifetime donations and this two-day event helped achieve that goal.
Until this year, an annual golf event has been the primary fundraiser by Truck Center Companies for Make-A-Wish Nebraska. Since its debut in 1994, the event has raised over $2.6 million and granted over 380 wishes. With the money raised from this last week, Make-A-Wish Nebraska will be able to grant 57 wishes for children and families who need them most.
Also for the 25-year anniversary of Truck Center Companies’ fundraising efforts, TCC hosted a concert and auction for Make-A-Wish on June 6, 2019. Prior to the concert, Governor Pete Ricketts addressed the crowd on the importance of Make-A-Wish. The concert event featured performances by Nashville recording artist and Grand Ole Opry member, Craig Morgan, and Nebraska native Dylan Bloom.
Truck Center Companies is the single largest donor to Make-A-Wish Nebraska and takes great pride in raising money used to bring joy to children diagnosed with life-threatening illnesses.
“Improving the quality of life for children who deserve it most is our main goal for this event and it’s so rewarding to meet that objective every year,” says Mytty. “We can’t thank our vendors, customers, and friends enough for their generosity, and we’re so proud of what we’ve accomplished here together.”
