Make-A-Wish Puerto Rico celebrated its exceptional fundraising event, “Magic Night Gala 2023,” recently at the Royal Sonesta Hotel in Isla Verde with the theme of “Mystical Egypt.” Make-A-Wish brings to life this important gala every year to raise funds for 125 young children from the age of 2 ½ years to young adults under 18 from Puerto Rico who have been chosen due to life-threatening conditions.
Glamorous ladies in magnificent gowns were in attendance, with many wearing extravagant Egyptian headpieces, gliding around the beautifully decorated event filled with colorful floral arrange ments by Emilio Olabarrieta Event Atelier. The best dressed men also enjoyed the spectacular buffet and accompanied the ladies to dance the night away to the music of Cuenta Regresiva and DJ Curvy.
