TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Jul 2, 2013) - In June, more than 165 individuals, including wish families, donors, corporate partners and members of the community, gathered their courage and rappelled great heights from 30+ storey, city-centre buildings in Toronto and Halifax at the second annual Make-A-Wish® Rope for Hope . This year, Rope for Hope raised more than $300,000 to support local wish granting activities. Fundraising wish supporters rappelled in costume , in teams, solo and as part of the Toss Your Boss corporate challenge. Rope for Hope is a unique challenge event that calls on participants to fundraise a minimum of $1,500, in exchange for a once-in-a-lifetime experience to rappel down the side of an iconic city building. The 2012 Rope for Hope pilot in Toronto at City Hall and its successes, led to 2013 events in Toronto and Halifaxs Fenwick Tower. Make-A-Wish plans to take the rappelling event from coast-to-coast and into five more markets in 2014.
