This weekend, the glamour of Miami was highlighted at the 29th InterContinental Miami Make-A-Wish Ball, where philanthropists and celebrities gathered, including Grammy-winner Gwen Stefani, who performed. The charity gala raised over $42 million to help grant the wishes of more than 8,000 critically ill children, according to WSVN.

Adding to the evening's prestige was support from Notified, the event's VIP sponsor. Nimesh Davé, President of Notified, shared his connection to the cause, stating, "Our commitment to community runs deep, and there is no greater privilege than helping bring hope, joy and courage to children who need it most. This sponsorship is an opportunity to come together not only as a company but as part of a movement that’s transforming lives, one wish at a time," according to Globe Newswire.

Make-A-Wish Southern Florida aims to help families and children see beyond their struggles and find renewed hope. This year's gala proceeds will directly support the organization's wish-granting efforts, backed by community leaders, local supporters, and global partners. With nearly 15,000 wishes granted by Make-A-Wish Southern Florida, the ball's impact is significant and uplifting.
