Make-A-Wish is a non-profit organization that helps fulfill the desires of children with critical illnesses.
Cena, a WWE superstar turned actor, granted his first Make-A-Wish in 2002, just three years after beginning his professional wrestling career.
According to a press release from Guinness World Records, Cena is the celebrity children most often request to meet.

"If you ever need me for this ever, I don't care what I'm doing, I will drop what I'm doing and be involved because I think that's the coolest thing," Cena told Reuters.
"If I can offer a fantastic experience, I''l be the first in line to do my part," he said.
In 2012, Cena gave the foundation's 1,000th request to a fan named Cardon.
In 2015, he became the first celebrity to grant 500 wishes.
Cena has also been a major voice of WWE's "Be a Star" anti-bullying campaign -- a program that encourages young people to treat each other with tolerance and respect through education and grassroots initiatives.
