We asked Sophia how Make-A-Wish had first started. She said it had all begun with a very sick young boy called Chris, who had been dreaming for a long time of becoming a policeman . Sophia said lots of people had wanted to find a way to make Chris ‘s dream come true - So ,with everybody’s help , Chris ,only seven years old at the time ,had been a “policeman ” for a day. When people saw how delighted Chris was when his dream came true ,they decided to try and help other sick children too, and that was the beginning of Make-A-wish ,” explained Sophia .
