The Wright Family Starblazer Award
Thank you for giving kids like me not just our wishes, but reasons to
believe in hope that lasts a lifetime.
Together, Jeff, Jenny and their two children, Bowie and Beckham, share a
profound love for meeting wish kids and witnessing the joy of wishes coming true.
Their philanthropy is driven by a deep compassion for children and a desire to
create lasting change.
Jeff has served as a dedicated member of the Make-A-Wish Arizona
Board of Directors for many years, offering invaluable leadership and guidance.
His company has proudly supported the Wish Ball as a corporate sponsor
for more than a decade, helping to make wishes come true for countless
children. Jenny has also played a vital role in the community, serving as a
Wish Ball co-chair and generously volunteering her time.
The Wright family’s commitment to the Make-A-Wish mission and the children we serve is inspiring and deeply impactful. As Starblazer Award donors, they will continue to illuminate the path of hope for wish kids.
