The Make-A-Wish Foundation, the non-profit organization that granted Miles Scott's dream by turning San Francisco into Gotham, posted an update on Miles on the fifth anniversary of his wish.

“Now 10 years old and in fifth grade, Miles loves science and robotics,” the organization said in the update on its website.

On Nov. 15, 2013, Miles was cheered on in San Francisco by thousands of people who turned out to support him as he helped solve a crime to save the city.

The wish for Miles drew even the attention of then-President Barack Obama who issued his first ever Vine on Twitter congratulating Miles.

Miles' wish was turned into a documentary, “Batkid Begins,” that took an inside look at the 2013 Make-A-Wish event.

A recent study found that participation in the Make-A-Wish program may give children better quality of life and reduce hospital visits and health care costs. »
