If you don’t know the name Frank Shankwitz, you’ll know the organisation he founded: The Make-A-Wish Foundation.
Frank tells his story of how Make-A-Wish got started, his own troubled childhood, his time in England (where he was an Honour Guard at Winston Churchill’s funeral), and how everyone has the power to make a difference.
