Fall Benefit Breakfast 2011 - October 5, 2011
Nearly 300 business professionals were wowed by Seattle's newest video game producer, 10-year-old wish recipient Owain, at the Fall Benefit Breakfast on October 5th at the Grand Hyatt Seattle. His story, told by he and keynote speaker, Matt Johnston of PopCap Games, helped set the stage for an inspirational and energetic event that raised more than $124,000 to grant future wishes. Former wish recipient, and the only Make-A-Wish recipient to ever serve on the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of America's Board of Directors, Tiffany Rowe also shared the impact that her wish to dance on stage with Michael Jackson had on her and continues to have on her more than two decades later.
Special thanks to the guests, keynote speaker Matt Johnston, wish recipient Owain, fellow wish recipient and inspiration speaker Tiffany Rowe and emcee Allen Schauffler of King 5 News.
Addtionally, we are grateful to all of our sponsors whose support made this event possible:
