Because celebrities are able to reach so many people throughout the course of their stardom, they are a big part of many of the wishes the MAW Foundation grants. As I have witnessed first hand, often being a part of the wish experience is almost as moving for the celebrity as it is for the child. Take Beyonce, for instance. She recently granted 12-year-old Zykia's wish from the Florida Chapter of MAW. For one night Zykia was able to put aside hospital visits and doctor examinations to be front and center at Beyonce's concert. Just having been driven in a stretch limo to the arena, Zykia was ushered to a special area for a meet and greet with Beyonce that started out with a HUGE hug from her idol. After spending some good amount of quality time with her, Zykia took her front row seat to enjoy the actual show. Arriving back home in the limo was surely the icing on the cake to what was an INCREDIBLE night for Zykia!
Beyonce is only one out of MANY celebrities who offer their time to grant wishes to children. The list includes:
Bruce Springsteen
John Cena
Jeff Gordon
The Jonas Brothers
Mariah Carey
"The Office" cast
and the list goes on and on!
