On Sunday, July 31st, Ali Knotek held the TEENS-4-KIDS kick-off party at her
home. It was a great turn-out, with about seventy people in attendance,
including wish-recipient, Alex. Alex told his story about his illness and what
it was like to receive a wish. Everyone had a lot of fun at the party while
swimming, listening to the DJ, playing billiards and basketball, and singing
karaoke! If you would like to be involved with the
Wishes & More
Teens-4-Kids, please contact Ali Knotek at
