Fanatics

It’s been one year since we partnered with Make-A-Wish America to become the first official sports partner of the wish-granting organization. Since then, we have enhanced nearly 400 wishes! This includes creating wish enhancements at some of the biggest sporting events like the Super Bowl, WrestleMania, NHL All-Star Game, NBA All-Star Game, and the MLB All-Star game, as well as a first-of-its-kind wish madness event with the Los Angeles Dodgers. In addition, Fanatics has further amplified the experiences with surprise athlete meet-and greets, provided wish kids with custom merchandise, hosted Topps trading card activations and shopping experiences at Fanatics-run retail stores, along with visits to Fanatics offices and fulfillment centers.   We are excited to continue our commitment to enhancing sports-related wishes with Make-A-Wish and helping to close the gap in number of sports wishes wanting to be granted. Thank you to all our internal teams who have supported us to bring these wishes to life. Watch the video below to see more from our first year of the partnership! #onefanatics
