John Cena has recently become a household name with his portrayal of the DC character, Peacemaker. However, Cena was already a huge celebrity due to his work in the WWE, with around 11 championships, and where some of his colleagues have stated: “He has the most functional strength foundation I have ever seen.”
Well, being the hard worker that he is, Cena has broken the Guinness World Record for granting Make-a-Wish Foundation wishes. He is the all-time record holder for the non-profit with 650 wishes granted as of this writing. Just think about that for a second: 650 very ill children who John Cena personally granted a wish for. 650 children who he took the time to make smile. That is impressive! Imagine having the ability to bring happiness to a very ill child just by showing up. He has that privilege and has done it 650 times. It is a powerful thing and genuinely moving.
Before him, the record was 200 wishes. He started doing this in 2002 and has since made many children happy by simply showing up and granting their wishes. How great is that? I am a fan of Cena’s, and one of my friends even said that I look like him sometimes, but it is this kind of dedication that truly earns my respect. If just your presence could brighten the day of a very ill child, it is a meaningful way to help. Cena is a commendable person.
Just a life long New Yorker sharing the journey through my lens.
