Today on National Pediatrician Day, I wanted to tell you a little bit about one outstanding doctor. 

Dr. Sine is a pediatric doctor and a medical advisor for Make-A-Wish®.
He’s referred an incredible amount of patients to our programs – nearly 400 children. He told us that he sees firsthand the increased energy, resilience, drive and hope that a wish can provide to his patients.  

When a 4-year-old girl he was treating began declining quickly, Make-A-Wish had to rush her wish process to make it come true in time. And after her joyful wish experience, Dr. Sine saw her not only tolerate her treatment better, but also saw her health decline slow down and her quality of life improve. 

That’s the power of a wish. It can bring a child joy in their darkest moment. But we need your help in making wishes come true for kids facing critical illnesses. For every wish granted, another two kids are waiting. 

Please, will you help us reach our $50,000 goal in honor of
National Pediatrician Day and make a gift? Every dollar will go toward giving wish kids the hope, strength and resilience a wish can provide to change a child's health outcomes for the better.

As we express our gratitude for pediatricians and heroes like Dr. Sine, we also extend our thanks to supporters. Your generosity empowers us to bring life-changing experiences to children facing critical illnesses.

Thank you for being a champion for wish kids.
