[NEWS] MOUNTAINEER IDOL, MAKE-A-WISH GIVE BACK

The Mountainlair Ballrooms were filled with students cheering on their favorite contestants and special guests from the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
The foundation set up a table where they sold cupcakes donated by Morgantown’s Cupcakerie and offered Make-A-Wish stars.
Proceeds went to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, to help make a child’s wish come true.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation had a brief video at the beginning of Mountaineer Idol that showed the stories of two children and their families.
“It’s for children who have their lives altered by a disease they can’t control,” said Rickie Huffman, vice president of West Virginia University’s Wishmakers on Campus.
Students who are a part of Wishmakers on Campus can work and gain community service hours while helping to make a child’s wish come true.
Matt Boczanowski and Amanda Hughart hosted the show again, alongside special Make-A-Wish guest Lauren Musgrove.
