This year, Make-A-Wish® Mid-Atlantic is celebrating its 35th anniversary. Over the last 35 years, we’ve granted over 9,800 wishes to local children with critical illnesses. One of those children was Steven. In 1995, at the age of six, local wish kid Steven was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. He faced difficult years of treatment, but his life transformed in 1997 when his wish to meet the Miami Dolphins came true. The wish brought Steven a hope that he had been missing for years. Today, Steven is a happy and healthy 28-year-old, and his family can still trace the impact of his wish on their lives. Steven’s mom, Betsy, serves on the board of Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic and is committed to bringing the power of a wish to other families in need. Betsy shared, “Make-A-Wish brought light, hope and huge smiles back into our world.”
