The MAGIC Foundation, leaders in endocrine support, is a national non-profit organization that supports families of children and adults with endocrine related disorders. MAGIC’s annual convention is a 4-day event, Thursday through Sunday, that combines both educational and social activities geared towards families and medical professionals. The MAGIC Foundation’s first convention was in 1995 with an attendance of 86 people. This year we will be hosting our 30th Annual Convention and expect over 1000 people!
This is a great opportunity for you to be a part of MAGIC! Consider attending or exhibiting/sponsoring this worthwhile convention. Below are many activities your company can sponsor. Most exhibitors have some type of booth activity for the children (ie. face painting, snow cone machines, caricaturists, give-aways, etc.). If you need ideas for entertainment or have questions, contact Dianne at dianne@magicfoundation.org.
Please help make this convention a huge success! We appreciate and recognize our corporate sponsors. It is your generous contributions to MAGIC that allow us to offer such an affordable convention for our families.
