FBLA is a media partner Make-A-Wish Foundation of Greater Los Angeles. We will be bringing you stories all season long about the children the organization assists.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation of Greater Los Angeles partnered with the Los Angeles Kings (Kings) and the Zebras Care Organization to once again host “Kings for Wishes” night as part of the annual Star Of The Month Program. Thirteen-year-old wish child and 2009 campaign ambassador Rachael Gottes was featured as the “Star Of The Month” during the Dec. 3 game at the STAPLES Center, where she met the players and officials. During the game, Kings donated $100 for every one of the 27 saves made by the team to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. In addition, the Kings are also donating a portion of proceeds from ticket sales that are bought though www.lakings.com/maw directly to the Foundation.
