UFC Fans Raise $240,000 For Make-A-Wish

Yesterday the UFC presented Make-A-Wish Foundation of Southern Nevada, an organization dedicated to granting the wishes of children diagnosed with critical illness, with a donation of $240,000. The funds will help Make-A-Wish create life-changing experiences for more than 50 kids with critical illnesses.

UFC COO Lawrence Epstein made it clear that the UFC will continue to work closely with the foundation, in order to support their incredible efforts to positively affect the community.

“Make-A-Wish Foundation is such a special organization and we are proud to support it,” Epstein said. “When you see how this tangibly effects people lives, it’s easy to realize that this is a cause that we need to contribute to.
