About:
Make-A-Wish Ice Cream Social
Make-A-Wish is one of our clubs at school that runs various events throughout the year and many of our athletes take part in.
The Make-A-Wish Club (Kids for Wish Kids Program) is in its’ 3rd year at Malden Catholic! We have successfully granted two (2) wishes to local teenagers in the Boston area by raising over $23,000. This school year, we are at 57% of our goal of $10K in an effort to grant wish #3. Our student athletes are so proud to support the efforts and spread the word about our Soc’s Ice Cream event on Friday, May 21 noon-10pm. 20% of proceeds went directly to Malden Catholic’s efforts to grant a wish to a seriously ill child with Make-A-Wish® Massachusetts and Rhode Island. We had all of our teams help promote the event over several weeks using social media, making posters and word of mouth. We had members of all the teams attend the event, about forty athletes in total along with the Mayor of Malden and several other communities as well.
