Make-A-Wish Foundation of Utah 25th Anniversary Gala

Join us on Saturday, March 20th, 2010 at the Grand America Hotel for our annual gala benefit and auction. This year is going to be extra special as we celebrate 25 years of granting wishes for Utah children! The event will be a black-tie, high class night that you won’t want to miss. Come dressed to the nines and help us grant wishes for another 25 years.


The evening begins at 5:30 with a silent auction containing hundreds of great items and a cocktail hour. Be sure to check out our “Wall of Wishes” and see some of the amazing wishes that have been granted over the past 25 years. At 7:00 it’s time to head into the ballroom for a gourmet dinner. This is where the excitement really happens. For our wish filled program we will be catching up with some of our past wish kids as well as meet some of our current wish kids! The best part of the evening is hearing their heart-warming and inspiring stories. We may even surprise a child and grant a wish that evening (shhhhh!) Following our program we will have an exciting live auction. We are aiming to raise $175,000 on this special night.

Tickets are on sale NOW for $150 a seat. Tables of 10 are available for $1,500. Contact the Special Events Manager at (801) 262-WISH (9474) or events@utah.wish.org to reserve your seats, to donate an item for the auction, or for additional information. Official event invitations will be mailed in February.


We look forward to seeing you in March. With your help we can see that the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Utah grants another 2,500 wishes in years to come.
