The Make-A-Wish Foundation of Alaska and Washington has granted plenty of wishes throughout the years -- and for a young Seattleite name Alex, his wish came true last week: to see robots in action helping humanity. Alex ultimately hopes that robots will help bring about world peace and to help bring his dream come to life, The Make-A-Wish Foundation set him up with two days filled with fun robotic adventures.

One of the included activities was for a stop at the University of Washington's Red Square, where more than 1,000 students, faculty, volunteers, Make-A-Wish staff, and members of the community participated in a flash mob dance. So, if you're in need of a little Monday inspiration, we highly suggest that you check out this full video.

And, guess what -- you can help make wishes come true as well!

Now through February 15, you can text the word "WISH" to 27722 to make a $5 donation to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. (Charges will appear on your wireless bill, or be deducted from your prepaid balance. All purchases must be authorized by account holder.)
