We’re the Spotlight Family of the 2024 Southern Ohio Wish Gala

You’ve seen Soraya’s dress for the upcoming Make-A-Wish Gala, but did you know the Faruqui 5 is the SPOTLIGHT FAMILY of the event!?

The gala is this Saturday (April 13th), which also happens to be the day before Soraya’s 12th birthday. All Soraya wants for her birthday is a formal party, and we are DELIVERING 🙌🏾

We had a unanimous vote before being chosen as the Spotlight Family, and we all felt very passionate about sharing our incredible Make-A-Wish experience with others and encouraging folks to donate to help other families receive the same impact. I am excited to share more about our experience at the gala, as I am one of the event’s speakers.

Getting to know the Make-A-Wish OH, KY & IN team over the last few months as they interviewed and recorded us to create the beautiful film about our family that will be playing at the gala has been incredible. Of course, the whole team is now family 😉. They captured some great moments that we’ll now be able to rewatch and cherish forever, which we are so grateful for.

Speaking of gratitude, we are SO unbelievably grateful for everyone who has shown up for Soraya and our family throughout this process (and always). To everyone who is attending this weekend, who helped buy tickets so more members of our community could join us, donated money, helped fundraise, spread the word, became an event sponsor, etc. – THANK YOU x1000000
