Organizations like Make-a-Wish have such a huge impact on children from all around the world. Celebrities like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson are always happy to do whatever they can to make those sweet kids’ dreams come true. The legendary star proved this in December 2023 by breaking a Make-A-Wish record — according to The Rock himself, he “had the honor and privilege of granting the most wishes in one day (Hollywood).”

It was also said to be one of the biggest Make-A-Wish days ever! This is exciting, of course, but what’s even better is taking a closer look at the individual lives who were impacted that day.

Kid Walks Away During The Rock’s Make-a-Wish Visit

@therock Wanted to a share a special moment with you guys, from my big @Make-A-Wish day – where I had the honor and privilege of granting the most wishes in one day (hollywood) and one of the biggest Make A Wish Days ever. I loved spending time and getting to know each and every special kid in this room — and needless to say by the time I got to my buddy Trenton here…. he literally had to walk away and duck behind a corner to let his emotions out 🥰 as his sister is crying happy tears 🥹 Happy tears are good – I’ll take ‘em all. I have so much to share with you guys of all the joy, love and positivity (and happy tears) from this day. More to come. For me, stuff like this will always be the best part of fame ❤️☝🏾 #makeawishday #bestdayever #dwanta🎅🏾 ♬ original sound – The Rock

The Rock had already visited a few kids by the time he made his way to Trenton and his sister. But nothing could have prepared him for either of their heartwarming reactions.

“I loved spending time and getting to know each and every special kid in this room — and needless to say by the time I got to my buddy Trenton here…. he literally had to walk away and duck behind a corner to let his emotions out,” The Rock says.

Once Trenton momentarily stepped away, his sister started to cry — but they were tears of joy. Needless to say, this moment was incredibly emotional for everyone there.

“Happy tears are good — I’ll take ’em all,” The Rock shares. “I have so much to share with you guys of all the joy, love and positivity (and happy tears) from this day. More to come. For me, stuff like this will always be the best part of fame.”
