NEWSLETTER

Enterprise Rent-A-Car Surprises Wish Kid Adonis Make-A-Wish was invited to attend Enterprise’s Manager’s Summit in Montgomery, Texas. In front of more than 150 managers and senior leaders of Enterprise, President and CEO Shelly Millwee spoke about the mission and local impact of Make-A-Wish. Then, the crowd recognized wish kid Adonis and his family. As Adonis was coming to the stage, everyone in the audience prepared the surprise ... when Adonis turned around, he saw hundreds of people wearing Mickey ears, and Enterprise leaders announced his wish to go to Disney World would be granted! Feel the energy in the family’s video here! Enterprise has launched their annual employee giving campaign, and Make-A-Wish was the No. 1 choice among Enterprise employees to be the beneficiary. In only two years, the combined impact of Enterprise’s employee donations and corporate gifts has totaled $330,000!

The Learning Experience Raises $70,000! After raising nearly $70,000 for local wishes, the staff at The Learning Experience Bella Terra hosted a send-off party for wish kid Matthew before his trip to Disney Land! We are pleased to partner with TLE, which has 17 Houston locations for daycare and early childhood education.

“It was a wonderful vacation without any worries. We could focus on enjoying our time together as a family and celebrating Matthew and nothing else. We are overwhelmed with gratitude.” --Matthew’s Mom
