MARTINIS & MAKEUP EVENT IN SARASOTA TO BENEFIT MAKE-A-WISH FOUNDATION® Local and National Luxury Lifestyle Brands to Host Wish-Raising Event A fundraising event benefitting Make-A-Wish Foundation®, featuring Fleming's martinis and food, Grey Goose vodka signature drinks, Chanel makeup artists, custom Ferrari fittings, and lavish raffle and silent auction prizes from among the following event sponsors: Ferrari of Tampa Bay, Rx Med Spa, Saks Fifth Avenue, Ignition Branding, BMO Private Bank, Fleming's, Grey Goose Vodka and Chanel. To raise funds for Make-A-Wish Foundation®, so that Make-A-Wish® can continue giving hope, strength and joy by enriching the lives of children with life-threatening medical conditions through its wish-granting work, and to bring attention to the life-changing impact that a Make-A-Wish® experience has on children, families, donors, sponsors and entire communities. A wish is granted to a terminally ill child every 38 minutes, but not without the help of donations that help create the amazing experiences that delight wish kids and their families. A wish experience is frequently a source of inspiration for children undergoing difficult medical treatments and a positive force that helps them overcome their obstacles. It's the catalyst that rekindles their belief in themselves and the promise of their future. Children eligible for a wish are between the ages of 2 ½ and 18 years old with life-threatening medical conditions, i.e., a progressive, degenerative or malignant condition that has placed the child's life in jeopardy. Make-A-Wish® sends one of their enthusiastic wish teams to connect with wish children and help explore their imaginations for the experience that will delight and inspire them. Wishes range from meeting celebrities, spending a day as a military hero, vacationing on a cruise and taking in a sporting event with a star athlete. Ferrari of Tampa Bay, Rx Med Spa, Saks Fifth Avenue, Ignition Branding, BMO Private Bank, Fleming's, Grey Goose Vodka, Chanel and chairman, Bill McComb, are thrilled to bring all these luxury brands together for such a dynamic evening, helping the Make-A-Wish Foundation® share the power of a wish.
