Make-A-Wish Metro New York gala will celebrate thirty-three years of granting the wishes of area children with life-threatening medical conditions. The evening will honor Mazdack Rassi, co-founder of Milk, a multi-faceted creative company, and will be hosted by wish granter and celebrity photographer, Nigel Barker.
For more than a decade, Mazdack Rassi and Milk have been important wish-granting partners. With his deep roots in the fashion industry, he has brought together designers, photographers, makeup artists, stylists and many others to make impactful wish experiences happen.
Wishes are more than a just an experience or a moment in time. They can improve the quality of life for a child and his or her family following the diagnosis of a life-threatening illness. Wishes help children look to the future, and instill a sense of hope. The gala will celebrate these children and the many people that it takes to make wishes happen. Make-A-Wish Metro New York is striving to reach every one of the more than 1,000 children in our community who are medically eligible each year.
