help develop wish experiences which make life
much better for wish kids, households, and also
communities. Bobs Discount Furniture created
its first gift card contribution to Make-A-Wish
in 2010, when an 11-year-old kid referred to as
Angel experienced his wish come true. He wanted a
bedroom makeover and visited Bobs Discount
Furniture in Manchester, Conn., where he selected
a dresser, mirror, bed, chest as well as a
recliner chair. Once the remodeling was complete,
Angel felt like he was residing in a hotel suite
and invited his friends over to celebrate in his
new room.
