Here's Today's Feel-Good Story:
Michael Jordan celebrated his 60th birthday by setting a record for the largest donation to Make-A-Wish Foundation ever.
Jordan's donation will go to “create an endowment to provide the funds needed to make future wishes possible for kids with critical illnesses,” said the foundation.
Jordan stated that he “can’t think of a better birthday gift than seeing others join” him in supporting the foundation and that he hopes the donation will allow “every child” to “experience the magic of having their wish come true.”
“Everyone knows about Michael’s legacy on the basketball court, but it’s what he has consistently done off the court when no one’s watching that makes him a true legend for wish families and the wider Make-A-Wish community,” said CEO Leslie Motter.
