Join the Mukwonago Boys and Girls basketball programs in another year of making wishes come true. This program was started in honor of the late Kaden Stark, and Kaden’s legacy continues to live on in these events.

Themed “Strength. Hope. Community,” the kickoff meeting will be the official start to a two-week fast break of fundraising by various Mukwonago athletic and student groups, including track & field, band and youth basketball, Muskego Varsity boys’ and girls’ basketball teams, and various other groups.

The community can support the cause by pledging donations to the students who will participate in a “free-throw-a-thon.” The fundraiser will run January 19 through February 2, with a check presentation and celebration between the girls’ and boys’ high school varsity basketball games between Mukwonago and Muskego on Thursday, February 2.

This event was started in honor of Kaden Stark who was a young man living with a mitochondrial disorder. In 2011, Make-A-Wish® granted Kaden's wish to go to Walt Disney World® Resort. After his wish, Kaden and his family felt inspired to give back. They made a goal to raise enough funds to grant 100 wishes. In September 2019, Kaden passed away suddenly. He was 14 and a freshman at Mukwonago High School.
