The Los Angeles KISS announced that they will be partnering with Make-A-Wish Orange County and the Inland Empire. As part of the partnership, the KISS will be holding a Make-A-Wish Day on June 5 against the Orlando Predators at the Honda Center. A portion of the ticket sales will be donated to Make-A-Wish and the Inland Empire.

Also, a member of the organization who has been instrumental in granting wishes will be honored.

“We are honored to partner with such an exceptional organization like Make-A-Wish, that impacts so many families and children in our community, said LA KISS CEO, Joe Windham. We hope everyone can join us on June 5 for not only a great LA KISS game, but also to support our local chapter of Make-A-Wish.” All Make-A-Wish families will be invited to attend the game for free, where there will be activities prior and during the game.

Also, a BMX team will be performing stunts during halftime of the game. Also, one child from Make-A-Wish will be selected to deliver the game ball and that child will be doing the coin toss.

“Make-A-Wish is grateful for the support of the LA KISS and their dedication to helping us grant more wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions, Stephanie McCormick, CEO and President of the Make-A-Wish Orange County chapter said. This game will be a great opportunity for the team and the fans to learn more about Make-A-Wish and give our children a once in a lifetime experience.”

The KISS will also be participating in the organization’s Wishes In Flight program, where people can donate frequent flier miles to held a child’s wish come true.
