Make-A-Wish® Foundation of Greater Pennsylvania and Southern West Virginia

CIGNA

CIGNA recently presented a $8,625 gift to the Make-A-Wish Foundation® for the Simone Stefanelli Endowment Fund.  CIGNA has been a very generous supporter of the Get Away Gala, a black-tie event chaired by Drs. James Stefanelli and Joyce A. Perih of Moscow, Pa., in memory of their daughter, Simone.  Drs. Stefanelli and Perih established the endowment fund in memory of their daughter in order to help local children with life-threatening medical conditions receive their special wishes. While Simone was not a wish child, funds from the endowment help grant the wishes of local children living in Lackawanna, Luzerne, Wyoming, Pike, Monroe and Susquehanna counties.
