The Make-A-Wish Foundation is granting a five year a chance to be Batman for a day. On November 15, San Francisco will be protected by Miles, who has been battling leukemia. But Miles won’t be battling villains alone, the San Francisco Police Department will be helping him as well as a “real” Batmobile. They’ll be foiling some local villains (since it’s San Francisco, maybe beating hippies). It’s a wonderful thing to see and great for the city and foundation to do.

On their website, the foundation has a run down of what the day will entail:

The day starts with a breaking news story. Gotham City’s Police Chief asks if anyone knows the whereabouts of Batman because he needs his help solving crime and bringing the bad guys to justice. Our little Batman, Miles, in training with adult Batman, is ready to answer the call! Of course Batman will be riding in the “real” Batmobile around the City, saving the day and performing feats of derring-do!

After rescuing a damsel in distress from the cable car tracks in Nob Hill, and capturing the Riddler in the act of robbing a downtown vault, Batman will eat his lunch at the Burger Bar in San Francisco – directly above Union Square. While at Burger Bar, he will get a call on his Batphone to go to the window – where he will look down and see a huge group of volunteers jumping up and down asking for Batman’s help. Why?

Because the Penguin will be kidnapping a famous Gotham City mascot! The getaway car will be visible on Union Square (a convertible so that everyone can see what is happening), and the chase will be on!

After catching the Penguin, Batman will make his final stop at City Hall, where the Mayor and the Police Chief of Gotham City will thank him and give him the key to the city.

But, they’re also encouraging folks to participate by coming out and watching Mi… we mean Batman, in action or capturing it on video to share. You can get more details on their site and we encourage folks to donate as well.
