MJ Makes Historic Donation to Make-A-Wish – Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan is celebrating his 60th birthday by donating $10 million to Make-A-Wish America. The organization, which helps grant wishes for children suffering from critical illnesses, said it’s the largest donation it has ever received from an individual. Jordan, who turns 60 on Friday, said he hopes his donation inspires others to help Make-A-Wish fulfill the dreams of other kids waiting for their wishes to come true. “For the past 34 years, it’s been an honor to partner with Make-A-Wish and help bring a smile and happiness to so many kids,” Jordan said in a news release. “Witnessing their strength and resilience during such a tough time in their lives has truly been an inspiration.” The Basketball Hall of Famer and six-time NBA champion first supported Make-A-Wish in 1989, and since then has granted wishes to hundreds of children.
