ONONDAGA COUNTY, N.Y. -- A five-year-old North Syracuse boy got exciting news Monday that his wish had been granted.

Caleb was born with a heart defect. His dream is to visit Disney World and meet some of his favorite superheroes, including Spiderman. And Monday, Spiderman himself showed up to deliver the news that his dream was coming true.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation and CXtec helped make the trip possible. Employees at CXtec actually raised all the money and many were on hand Monday to see Caleb's reaction when he found out the news.

“It's a great way to rally the troops together and to have a really rewarding event that has a face at the end of it, that you can actually see the joy as you saw here today in the young person’s life,” said CXtec President Peter Belyea.

In addition to the trip, Caleb also got a bucket full of toys to play with.

This is the fourth trip CXtec has sponsored.
