Wish Night 2013

Wish Night® 2013

Hilton Anatole Hotel
May 18, 2013

6:00 pm

A hero is not always made of steel or a caped crusader in the middle of the night. Sometimes a hero is simply a child going through life’s greatest obstacles, with a smile on his face. Or maybe it’s the person who helps to make those smiles possible. This year, Make-A-Wish North Texas calls upon all its heroes to celebrate another wonderful year of magic. Join us as we take you through a night full of wonder, action and adventure as we celebrate you and each courageous child. For without you, we would not be able to give these children their super powers to battle through their illnesses. Wish Night is the signature black-tie gala for Make-A-Wish North Texas. Since inception, Wish Night has granted more than 1,350 wishes for children in North Texas battling life-threatening medical conditions.

WILL YOU BE THEIR HERO?

Wishes come in all shapes and sizes, but the average cost of a wish is $7,400. Your support of Wish Night 2013: A Night For Heroes provides children with hope for better times, strength for the tough times and the joy of experiencing the present.
