The Event Wings for Wishes is a unique South Florida event combining the love of delicious chicken wings with the desire to grant children’s wishes through Make-A-Wish Southern Florida. Our 5th Annual Wings for Wishes will take place on Saturday, March 9, 2019 and will be our biggest and best event ever. Our huge block party approach at Sports Grill South Miami will feature the now-famous wing eating competition and crowd-favorite chicken recipe tasting. Guests will enjoy Sports Grill’s tantalizing savory stations featuring delicious recipes along with a wide range of refreshing beverages, and mouth watering desserts. Add in live music, popular DJ’s, family fun activities, awards, and hundreds of enthusiastic attendees and we’ll have ourselves another sensational Wings for Wishes.
Our Purpose Together, we create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. This one belief guides us in everything we do at Make-A-Wish. It inspires us to grant wishes that change the lives of the kids we serve. It compels us to be creative in exceeding the expectations of every wish kid. It drives us to make our donated resources go as far as possible. Most of all, it’s the founding principle of our vision to grant the wish of every eligible child. Make-A-Wish Champions provides a platform for like-minded successful business people to help make miracles happen while enhancing their professional network. Throughout the year, Make-A-Wish Champions will host a variety of events and initiatives focused on championing the Make-A-Wish mission, strategic fundraising and increasing the professional networks of its members. You have the opportunity to forever impact a wish child’s life. Two of Make-A-Wish Champions’ avid members, Brian Exelbert and Gal Bensaadon, founded Wings For Wishes in 2015. Their goal was to develop a fun and family-friendly event that could raise awareness and funds to grant wishes. To date, their efforts have helped grant 66 wishes.
Funds Raised Since its inception, Wings For Wishes has raised over $333K. With your help we’ll meet our 2019 goal. 2019 Goal $250K 2018 $200K 2017 $80K 2016 $31K 2018 WFW Team 2015 $22K
Wishes Granted With $333,000 dollars raised to benefit Make-A-Wish, Wings For Wishes has helped grant 66 wishes. A wish provides a much-needed escape for a child facing a critical 66 illness.
