Katie's Wish

The Make-A-Wish Foundation of Mississippi received a very generous donation today. A Nationwide insurance office here in Mississippi, Michael Daly Insurance Agency, donated $6,500 and adopted Katie's wish.  A member of WJTV’s own family is getting the special wish. 13-year-old Katie wanted to go to Disney World and now her and her parents along with 3 siblings are going. Her father, Jimmy Smith, is a production control operator at News Channel 12. The Make-A-Wish Foundation of America is an organization that grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength, and joy.  Last year, the Make-A-Wish Foundation granted a child's wish in the U.S. every 41 minutes.
