The leaders and employees of Norwalk-based HomeServe USA celebrated a donation to a local chapter of the Make a Wish Foundation.

Home Serve USA presented a $23,000 check to Make A Wish Connecticut to help children fighting life-threatening illnesses.

Make A Wish officials invited Norwalk teen Ayasha Canti to share her wish experience. Canti recently visited Los Angeles and met with fashion designers, took part in a photo shoot, and even had one of her designs made for her.

Officials with Make a Wish Connecticut say they have granted over 2,500 wishes over the past 30 years.
