Why Dan Marino & Wish Upon A Hero?
Known for his heroic acts ON the field during his 17-year, hall-of-fame, record-setting career, Dan Marino is very much the hero OFF it as well.
When Dan Marino met Dave Girgenti, the man behind Wish Upon A Hero, it was truly a “match made in heaven.” The idea behind Wish Upon A Hero first came to founder Dave Girgenti immediately following the events of September 11, 2001. After Hurricane Katrina a few years later, Dave knew his idea had to become a reality. So he created Wish Upon A Hero, one of a kind service designed to connect those in need with people that can truly change their lives.
A one of a kind football player with a heart as big as his talent… And a one of a kind organization that teaches everyone that “Anyone can be a hero…”
Like we said… a match made in heaven.
