Wrestler and actor John Cena holds a very special Guinness World Record.
According to a report from Fox News, Cena is the only celebrity to grant more than 200 wishes through the Make-A-Wish foundation —in fact, he’s granted 650 wishes for children through the foundation.
Cena granted his first wish through the foundation in 2002, three years after beginning his professional wrestling career.
“If you ever need me for this ever, I don’t care what I’m doing, I will drop what I’m doing and be involved because I think that’s the coolest thing,” Cena told Reuters.
From Fox News:
Cena granted the foundation’s 1,000th wish in 2012, according to a release from Guinness World Records.
Make-A-Wish is a non-profit organization that works to fulfill the wishes of children ages 2 to 18 who have been diagnosed with critical illnesses, which includes helping them to meet celebrities, attend events or sometimes even give gifts to others.
The 16-time world champion in wrestling has also been the face of WWE’s “Be a Star” anti-bullying campaign.
“I want them to have an experience that will stay with them to forever,” Cena said in 2015 after granting 500 wishes. “I don’t ever want the children or their families to be treated in a way where they feel as if they’re up against anything at all.”
