Founder

Peter Larocque

Founded by Peter Larocque, President, North America Distribution for TD SYNNEX Corporation. As father and business leader, Peter had a vision to create an annual fundraising event in the Upstate to support children who suffer from life-threatening illnesses and their families. As a member of the Board of Directors of the Make-A-Wish South Carolina, he saw first-hand how critical the need is to help these children celebrate their lives through granting a “wish” or to help families cover some of the costs of their child’s overwhelming medical bills.
