Make-a-Wish with Sartori Cheese
The United Family is partnering with Sartori Cheese and Make-A-Wish this holiday season to make dreams come true for children facing critical illnesses. The campaign, which runs through the end of 2024, invites guests from all United Family grocery stores to participate by purchasing any Sartori Cheese product. A portion of the proceeds will benefit Make-A-Wish, with all funds staying in the regions where they are raised.
To kick off the campaign, The United Family made a generous lead donation of $10,000.
For deli business manager Gary Taylor, this campaign is deeply personal. In 2007, Gary’s 15-year-old son, Spencer, passed away from a terminal illness. Before his passing, Make-A-Wish granted Spencer’s dream trip to the birthplace of pizza–Italy. The family savored every moment of that unforgettable trip, filled with delicious food, surprises, and cherished memories.
Reflecting on the impact of that wish, Gary shared, “Make-A-Wish gave Spencer the ability to squeeze in a lot more life out of his 15 years than he would have otherwise. They gave our family so many incredible memories that will stay with us forever.”
Each year, Gary leads the charge for this fundraising campaign, raising thousands of dollars in honor of Spencer. “We are truly honored that Sartori partners with us at The United Family to make this donation in honor of Spencer,” he said.
This initiative is part of a decade-long partnership between The United Family and Sartori Cheese to support Make-A-Wish. Sartori contributes a portion of the proceeds from every Sartori product sold during the campaign to the organization.
“We are deeply grateful to The United Family and Sartori Cheese for once again championing the mission of Make-A-Wish this holiday season,” said Murphey Sears, chief development officer for Make-A-Wish North Texas. “Their continued support is crucial in helping us grant the wish of every eligible child across the 161 Texas counties we serve. We look forward to a successful campaign and many more years to come.”
This holiday season, bring joy to your table and a child’s life by choosing Sartori Cheese. Every purchase supports a wish, helping children and their families create memories that last a lifetime.
Together, we can make wishes come true.
