Kobe Bryant’s talent on the court was only matched by his talent for helping Make-A-Wish kids feel specialin a tragic helicopter crash that took the lives of eight other people, including his 13-year-
old daughter Gianna. The past week has meant countless stories in the media about Bryant’s career, his family, the effect of his death on the sports and entertainment world, and the collective mourning of all who loved him. But one story in particular tells more about Bryant than any NBA stat or championship — he granted over 200 Make-A-Wish requests during his storied career.
“Make-A-Wish is devastated to learn of wish granter Kobe Bryant and daughter Gianna’s tragic death,” the foundation told. “Kobe granted more than 200 wishes, giving each child hope for a brighter future. Our heartfelt condolences to the Bryant family and all the families who lost a loved one.” “It boosted my spirits so high,” Patterson shared. “I’m really grateful for that … [he] signed all my pictures, took any pictures I wanted, answered all my questions.”
