Gladiator Assault Challenge 2026 is proud to partner with Make-A-Wish Iowa! The mission of Make-A-Wish Iowa is to create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. Wishes can create better health outcomes for kids fighting critical illnesses.
165 Wishes were granted throughout the state in the last fiscal year (September 1, 2024–August 31, 2025).
"One thing that we really try to do is get to the heart of the wish," said Cassidy Gomez, an event manager with Make-A-Wish Iowa. "So we really sit down with the kids and the family and figure out what do they want to do, what are they like, and try to dream big and try to grant their biggest wish."
Over 300 wishes are waiting to be fulfilled by children in Iowa right now. The Gladiator team will start this great campaign by donating $600! Let's make a difference in a child's life!!
