Last weekend David could have stayed at home to rest up for the busy inaugural event ahead, but he chose to “Make a Wish” come true for a little girl. Now that’s My Idol!
Quoting from the San Diego Union Tribune:
Mission Hills resident Maddie Lovern, 13, hardly expected to run into “American Idol” heartthrob David Archuleta while seeing a friend at Rady Children’s Hospital last Saturday.
The singer/songwriter, from Utah, was visiting a young patient with a life-threatening illness at the request of the Make-a-Wish Foundation. Maddie, with her mom, Michelle, and brother, Drew, bumped into Archuleta as he left the hospital. So Archuleta graciously posed with Maddie for an impromptu photo on her mom’s cell phone.
Local Make-a-Wish head Chris Sichel said Archuleta was humble and generous and didn’t hesitate to re-arrange his schedule and immediately fly in from Utah to grant the child’s wish. “I didn’t know much about him before, but I’m a big fan now,” Sichel says.

Simply put, it’s not just about the music, when it comes to David. He truly stands out as one of the most caring and kind individuals in the public’s eye today.
More and more people will begin to understand this, as he continues with his career.
