Miley Cyrus shows off her shiny new World Wish Day Award in this new shot.
The 19-year-old actress/singer was recently honored with the very first award from Make-A-Wish for her “exceptional contributions to helping grant wishes to kids with life-threatening medical conditions.”
Over 13,800 wishes were granted across the country in the fiscal year 2011 of which more than 900 involved celebrities.
“For Make-A-Wish, celebrities are not simply promotional faces and voices – they are essential to fulfilling our wish-granting mission,” David A. Williams, president and chief executive officer of Make-A-Wish America shared in a statement. “This year we would like to honor a special celebrity who has gone above and beyond to create wish experiences that make life better for wish kids, families, and communities.”
