2025 Make-a-Wish Gala - Anything Can Happen!
The Make-a-Wish Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky chapter of Make-A-Wish held their Southern Ohio 2025 Wish Gala at Cincinnati Music Hall. Benchmark was proud to support the event as a "Joy Sponsor" with several team members and clients in attendance.
The 2025 Gala was a tremendous success, bringing together generous donors, supporters, volunteers as well as wish families and kids who have experienced the power a wish can have. Held at Cincinnati Music Hall, the evening was filled with inspiring stories of hope and joy as well as a shared commitment to making a difference.
Over $480,000 of funds were raised to help grant wishes throughout the community.
Benchmark co-founder and Wealth Advisor, Matt Eltringham, joined the Make-A-Wish Advisory Board for Southern Ohio last year and continues to serve as a volunteer Wish Granter.
A special thank you to Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson and his wife Gracie for joining us!
JonJon of Kiss 107 brought a ton of excitement to the stage when he and Evan passed the football and had an awesome back-and-forth about Make-A-Wish.
We would like to extend a huge thank you to Make-a-Wish for organizing an event that truly changes lives. Check out their website here.

Benchmark looks forward to continuing to support the life-changing impact Make-a-Wish has on children and families.
