Partnership to Support Granting Wishes on a Quarterly Basis to Wish Families

Bothell, WA, April 29, 2021 -- Carrot Medical®, LLC -- the Leader in Advancing Interventional Labs in Hospitals, together with Make-A-Wish®, one of the world’s leading children’s charities, announced a new partnership where Carrot will support granting wishes to children with critical  illnesses throughout 2021.

“Carrot Medical has been growing at a steady rate over the past several years, and it’s time to carve out some of that growth and give back,” said Jeremy D. Wiggins, President & CEO at Carrot Medical. “Make-A-Wish was an obvious first choice for Carrot to partner with for many reasons. Some reasons are quite obvious, and some are more personal. Regardless of the reasons, the Carrot Medical Team wants to specifically be a part of granting incredible wishes for deserving children -- and their supportive families.”

Under the partnership, Carrot Medical will initially donate $10,000 in the 2nd Quarter of 2021 to support a wish child. The intent is to continue to give at that level once every quarter over the next several years. Lastly, when Carrot Medical surveys its customers throughout the year, an additional nominal donation will be made to Make-A-Wish for each survey response received. 

“Wishes are possible because of the generous support of our community and partners like Carrot Medical,” said Melissa Arias, President and CEO of Make-A-Wish Alaska and Washington. “We are so grateful to Carrot Medical for helping give wish children an opportunity to replace fear with confidence, sadness with joy and anxiety with hope when their wishes are granted.”

Since granting their first wish in 1986, Make-A-Wish Alaska and Washington has fulfilled wishes for more than 7,500 children with critical illnesses.

About Make-A-Wish® Alaska and Washington:

Together, we create life-changing wish experiences for children with critical illnesses. Wishes have proven physical and emotional benefits that can give children with critical illnesses a higher chance of survival. When a wish is granted, a child replaces fear with confidence, sadness with joy and anxiety with hope. Yet, not every child in our territory who is eligible for a wish receives one. Right now, we could fill up seven school buses with the number of children who are waiting for their wishes. With your help, we can change that.
