The Father and Daughter Ball is a wonderful tradition here in Ottawa that has been around for a number of years now. But the area was definitely missing the other half of the equation – there really wasn’t a Mother & Son Ball, until now that is!

The Imagine Mother & Son Ball was complete with fun activities throughout the Canada Science and Technology Museum, great visits from some pretty special guests, a photo booth, great food (plus candy!) and of course dancing too!

They truly are inspirational and make capturing Make-A-Wish events and wish grants some of the most rewarding work we have ever done.

It is through all of this rewarding work with Make-A-Wish that we have been able to meet and get to know Tysen, who after receiving his own wish to meet Adam Sandler, decided that he wanted more kids to get their own wishes granted. And with that, Tysen’s Mission to a Million was started.
