This year, Macy’s will help grant wishes across the country, including these three upcoming:

• Monday, Nov. 30 in Seattle, WA: 14-year-old Harry, diagnosed with lymphoma, wishes “to deliver care packages to cancer patients at Seattle Children’s Hospital.” Macy’s Bellevue and Make-A-Wish Alaska and Washington have teamed up to help Harry’s wish come true. During National Believe Week, Harry will deliver pillows from Macy’s and care packages to 25 patients at Seattle Children’s Hospital.
• Tuesday, Dec. 8 in Brooklyn, NY: 5-year-old Kennise, diagnosed with leukemia, “wishes to stay in a castle.” Make-A-Wish Metro New York and Macy’s Downtown Brooklyn will transform a portion of the store into a castle fit for a princess.
• Tuesday, Dec. 8 in Richmond, VA: 5-year-old Ainarah, diagnosed with neuromuscular disorder, wishes “to meet JoJo Siwa.” Macy’s Short Pump Town Square, Nickelodeon and Make-A-Wish Greater Virginia will host a virtual meet-and-greet with singer and actress JoJo Siwa. Ainarah, her family and JoJo will be surprised with festive, matching family pajamas from Macy’s. On Giving Tuesday, Dec. 1, 20 percent of the purchase price (up to a total of $10,000) from Macy’s Family Pajama capsule will benefit Make-A-Wish.
