Make-A-Wish North Texas Friday announced the largest gift in its history: A $2 million gift from the Park Cities’ Miller family.
The Miller family, including Carolyn and David Miller, Katy and Kyle Miller and Meredith and Kyle Bebee, made the gift, which launches the “Two Years, Too Long: The Campaign for Every Child’s Wish” campaign to eliminate the waitlist for North Texas children with critical illnesses.
The Millers have supported Make-A-Wish North Texas for two decades.
“For nearly 20 years, our family has been proud to support Make-A-Wish North Texas. Getting to know wish children has made this mission deeply personal for us,” said David Miller. “Our hope is that this gift helps reduce the wait for North Texas children and inspires others to step in, so every child receives their wish when they need it most.”
More than 1,100 children across North Texas are waiting to have their wishes fulfilled, and Make-A-Wish North Texas is seeking to accelerate the process.
“This significant gift from the Miller family is so much more than generous, it’s deeply personal and rooted in a shared belief in the power of a wish,” said Make-A-Wish North Texas CEO Kim Elenez. “It is a big step forward in our ability to move faster, reach more children, and reshape what the wish journey looks like for families across North Texas. Two years is too long for a child to wait for hope, and we are committed to changing that.”
