MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Let’s get together, raise money and Rock the Wish!
How it all Started:
The Story behind Rock the Wish
We are the Cortinovis family and we created ROCK THE WISH to benefit Make-A-Wish Foundation. Hosting this special evening is our way of giving back to a charity that made such a big difference in our lives. Our involvement with Make-A-Wish began when our daughter was undergoing cancer treatment. It was a very hard time for her and our family. Upon being granted a wish, we were amazed by the dedication and care taken to provide our daughter with an exciting, fun-filled adventure in Scotland. Make-A-Wish arranged for our daughter to meet her favorite bands in concert, and not only that, one of the bands, Shinedown, even dedicated her favorite song to her during the show! It was a surreal experience. Most importantly though, that experience was uplifting for our daughter and her wish was granted at a time when she needed it the most. That is what Make-A-Wish is about, which is why were are dedicated to supporting their cause. Even today, we fondly reflect back upon the experience and how unforgettably kind and wonderful Make-A-Wish was towards us during such difficult time in our lives. All the people involved with Make-A-Wish understand how important a wish is for a child and their family and they dedicate themselves to this cause for the greatest benefit of all: to help kids be kids again.
