Make-A-Wish Hosts CMA Fest Luncheon For Families

Make-A-Wish hosted a luncheon by Kretschmar Deli that took place Thursday afternoon (June 7) at the Bell Tower in Nashville. Easton Corbin was the special surprise guest at the event, which also featured appearances by fellow Kretschmar brand ambassadors Ruthie Collins, Kelleigh Bannon, and Natalie Stovall.

Each artist performed a few songs and mixed and mingled with the Make-A-Wish families during the CMA Music Fest event. The deli brand granted a local Make-A-Wish kid’s ultimate dream of attending the CMA Music Festival in Nashville and set them up in Music City in style this week, complete with spending cash and concert tickets. All of this happened as part of Kretschmar’s ongoing Legendary Wishes campaign, which helps Make-A-Wish grant wishes for children with life-threatening medical conditions nationwide.
