The Wranglers and Wishes Event

• 📍 It will be held at the Omni in downtown Fort Worth, referred to as "Cowtown Cocktail."
• 💰 The primary goal of the event is to raise funds to continue granting wishes for children.

Impact of Wishes on Children and Families

• 💖 The story of six-year-old Caitlyn, who is battling leukemia and wishes to be a princess, highlights the impact of these wishes.
• ✈️ Caitlyn's wish is to go to Disney World, providing a magical experience for her and her family.
