DFS Group has launched a great charity initiative to help grant wishes to children who are battling life-threatening illnesses.

 

The world’s leading DF&TR operator has partnered with the world’s largest wish-granting organization, ‘Make-A-Wish’, with generous help from 12 celebrity ambassadors from Asia who will invite the public to unite and share their joy in support of those most in need during the holiday season until December 25.

 

Donation boxes have been placed in 13 DFS stores around the world until December 26 to encourage public participation and those who wish to participate in this campaign can also follow @DFSOfficial on Instagram and Facebook and #JoyToYourWorld.

 

Commenting on this very worthy initiative, DFS Group Chairman and CE Philippe Schaus said: “We are honoured and excited to partner with Make-A-Wish this year in support of children in need. DFS is committed to giving back to the communities where we live and work, and we believe it is especially important during the holiday season to bring joy to those in need.”

As mentioned, the mission of Make-A-Wish is to grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions and since it began in 1980, Make-A-Wish has amazingly granted the wishes of more than 334,000 children in nearly 50 countries.
