That child then receives our \u201cHero of the Month\u201d award.\u00a0<em>Kids Wish Network<\/em>\u00a0provides a valuable \u201cHero\u201d gift package for the monthly award ceremony at each hospital. The hospital\u2019s child-life departments universally tout the dramatic, positive and lasting effect the recipients of this award exhibit.<\/p>\n<p>With the support of thousands of participants, the 2008 Corvette Dream Giveaway generated donations to fund the Hero program for an entire year. The huge demand for this program has created a long list of waiting facilities which is only limited by our ability to fund it.<\/p>\n<p>Through the cooperation of many generous sponsors, the 2009\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/winthevettes.com\/charityinfo.aspx#\">Corvette Dream Giveaway<\/a>\u00a0will be even more exciting than the inaugural event. None of efforts to help these deserving children would be possible without your generous support. We hope that we can count on your continued participation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Raffle Prizes<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Two amazing Corvettes here to choose from&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>1967 Corvette<\/strong>\u00a0&#8220;Stuffing a massive 427 cubic inch engine into America\u2019s favorite sports car resulted in a predictableground-pounding, tire-shredding beast.

Estimated at 390 horsepower this car is a thrill to drive. The heart-thumping side exhaustonly adds to the experience. This roadster is finished in striking Tuxedo black with black interior and top. Factory style \u201cbolt-on\u201d wheels with red line tires add to the original appearance of this restored iconic muscle car. No automatic here, you\u2019ll have to go through the gears yourself with the much more desirable four speed transmission.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>ONE OF A KIND 2009 Hero Edition ZR1<\/strong><br \/>\n&#8220;In cooperation with Kids Wish Network, General Motors has created a stunning one-of-a-kind Corvette ZR1 entitled the \u201cHero Edition,\u201d to honor the brave young heroes served by our hospital program.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-840\" title=\"2009\" src=\"http:\/\/oldcarraffle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/2009-300x138.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"138\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oldcarraffle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/2009-300x138.gif 300w, https:\/\/oldcarraffle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/2009.gif 306w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is easily the fastest production Corvette of all time and a stunning new performance benchmark for a production car.
