Brandon, a ten year old boy who lives near the
twin cities in Minneapolis, doesn’t let his diagnosis of Leukemia slow him
down. He loves sports, in particular the Indianapolis 500. In fact, attending
the Indy 500 was Brandon’s wish to the Make- A-Wish foundation. American Equity
Mortgage worked with the Make-A-Wish foundation to make Brandon’s need for
speed come true!
A special wish party was held for Brandon at a local go-kart race track. He
celebrated with family and his new friends from AEM with food and, of course, a
bit of racing in the go-karts. An AEM employee recalled how grateful Brandon
and his family were, hearing his mother comment, “We appreciate all that
your company has done to help Brandon’s wish come true. It is also great to
know that you are helping children all over the country .”
Brandon and his family had a fantastic time at the Indy 500, and Brandon was
able to forget about fighting cancer for a day while he enjoyed his wish. The
family relaxed, reconnected and focused on have a great time . It
was truly something they will never forget.
American Equity Mortgage is proud to have helped the Make-A-Wish foundation
make Brandon’s wish come true.
