NEWS: 4th Annual Walk for Wishes To Help Grant A Wish

4th Annual Walk for Wishes
Magic Jump Rentals was happy to be a part of the 4th Annual Walk for Wishes charity fundraiser held at Mattel’s company store in El Segundo this past Saturday, March 5. The event is the Los Angeles chapter’s largest fundraiser of the year benefitting the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Nearly $200,000 was generated in donations and sponsorships on a day where 1,500 participants, including wish children and their families, joined local businesses, community leaders, organizations, schools and individual supporters “to share a day of camaraderie and hope”.

Everyone got to enjoy a day of food, music and fun on Saturday. It was exciting to be there for the 3rd year in a row and we look forward to delivering fun to Walk for Wishes for years to come. It is a privilege to be counted on by such a great foundation for such a beneficial event.

Altogether, enough money was raised to make more than 30 children battling a life-threatening medical condition who live in Los Angeles County smile by granting their wish. The 4th Annual Walk for Wishes proved to be a successful event made possible by the hosts, organizers, participants, partners, sponsors and donations.
