Help us give a critically-ill child hope this holiday season!
This year would have held the 4th annual Music Makes Wishes Benefit: A fun-filled night of live music to raise money to grant the wish of a child with a critical illness. In years past, I along with my band, Men or Myth, have organized local NYC musicians to come together to perform in unique collaborations and offer live-band karaoke for guests to join in with the band on stage, all in an effort to raise money for Make A Wish Metro New York.
For various reasons, we were unfortunately unable to host the event in person this year. In lieu of the in-person event, we have collaborated with several local musicians from afar to produce some uplifting music to share with you virtually.
A very special thank you goes out to all of the musicians that contributed to this project! Please consider donating to help us grant the wish of a critically-ill child. Every little bit helps! Please consider sharing this post with your friends on social media too!
As a member of the Junior Board of Make-A-Wish Metro New York and as a wish granter volunteer, I have had the opportunity to see first-hand the immense positive impact that wishes have on children and their families. A wish is more than simply a fun experience, it is hope. In a world of physical limitations, constant doctor appointments, and perhaps a limited period of time on this earth, the wish experience is truly a vacation from reality and the opportunity for the child to forget about their troubles and to dream big and for their family to share in the fun. Wishes impact everyone involved- wish kids, their families, volunteers, donors, sponsors, medical professionals and communities. The impact varies. For wish kids, just the act of making their wish come true can give them the courage to comply with their medical treatments. Parents might finally feel like they can be optimistic. And still others might realize all they have to offer the world through volunteer work or philanthropy. Whatever the odds, whatever the obstacles…wishes find a way to make the world better.
Your donation will help grant the wish of a critically ill child in the NY Metro area. Make-A-Wish grants thousands of wishes each year. A lot, yes, but that’s only 50% of eligible kids. Your donation will help additional deserving children and their families know the happiness, relief, and renewal a wish can bring.
Thank you so much for your generosity!
Sincerely,
Mike Knuff
