Lexus of Wayzata and Lexus of Maplewood are excited to partner with the Make-A-Wish Foundation at its Wish Ball this year.
The evening was a tremendous success. The Wish Ball, held on the evening of March 3, 2012, was a magical and fabulous evening for the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Minnesota. More than 800 of Make-A-Wish® supporters came together in a celebration of 30 years of wishes come true.
Guests enjoyed a fabulous gourmet dinner and the soul-stirring sounds of The Steeles, Minnesota's first family of gospel and soul. The spacious Saint Paul RiverCentre was filled with rows of one-of-a-kind silent auction items. Of note were the Monique Lhullier Fashion Week Runway Show, a 2012 Polaris TV 550 Sportsman and wish-inspired necklace designed by wish child Kennedy and Sara Beth Goldfine of SBG Designs.
The highlight of the evening was wish child Kennedy's dazzling ballet performance with the Saint Paul City Ballet. Kennedy's wish to meet real ballerinas came true last December. Learn more about Kennedy and how her wish to meet real ballerinas gave her joy and illuminated some of her darkest days in her video story.
Guests offered their generous support of this year's Wish Ball helping raise approximately $650,000 to help grant more wishes for Minnesota children battling life-threatening medical conditions.
Save the date for next year's Wish Ball set for May 18 at the Saint Paul RiverCentre!
