Make-A-Wish Central New York is preparing for its annual Sugarman Law Firm Wish Ball, a gala event to support wishes for children with critical illnesses.
This year’s gala takes place from 5:30 to 11 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 22, at The Oncenter, located at 800 South State Street in Syracuse. This black-tie optional event honors the exceptional volunteers and supporters who help to create the magic of Make-A-Wish, as well as the generous and committed individuals, businesses and organizations who make wishes come true.
This year, Make-A-Wish Central New York will recognize corporate sponsor Dunkin Donuts and longtime donor Darren Petragnani for their ongoing support in making wishes come true. Entertainment this year is provided by Central New York party band, The Horn Dogs.
Tickets are $150 and can be purchased by calling 315-475-WISH or emailing [email protected]. Reservations must be made by Sept. 14.
Wish Ball is made possible through the generous support of Sugarman Law Firm and other sponsors, including Carrols, Dunkin Donuts and Excellus BlueCross BlueShield.
