In addition to βwrestlerβ and βactorβ, we can add βphilanthropistβ to John Cenaβs resume. With over 600 wishes granted, Cena has granted more wishes than any celebrity in history.Β In a recent interview withPeoplemagazine, Cena recalled the first day he met one wisherβa young fan of WWE. βI said βIf you ever need me for this ever, I donβt care what Iβm doing, I will drop what Iβm doing and be involved because I think thatβs the coolest thing.β Cena also gets the most requests at Make a Wish; other stars donβt usually pass 300.
But Make a Wish isnβt the only charity that Cena supports: he recently donated $500,000 to the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation and the California Fire Foundationβboth chosen by Paramount Pictures, the studio behind Cenaβs upcoming film Playing with Fire.
