Giants QB Eli Manning fulfills Morris County teen's wish

Three-year-old Matthew's wish to have a Sensory Playroom in his family's home was granted through the 2019 Jersey Mike's Subs "Month of Giving" Campaign, which raised over $458,000 for Make-A-Wish New Jersey in March.

As Las Vegas struggled to understand in the days that followed the 1 October shooting, 15-year-old Riley Carty was inspired by what he saw: the selfless efforts of Las Vegas police officers who helped to bring the community together.

The 15-year-old boy, who is from West Deptford, got a trip to Vegas to meet with the police force there.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation came through for a South Jersey teenager. Fifteen-year-old Riley Carty was surprised with a special police escort and honor guard to the airport early Thursday morning as he’s off to Las Vegas to join his favorite police officers.

With an official police escort, he hopped in a limo and zoomed to the Philadelphia Airport. There, he is flying to Las Vegas to become a police officer for the day.

Make-A-Wish Southern Nevada and the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department will team up next week to grant an Officer-for-a-Day wish for a New Jersey teen.
