Before the day is over, another 40 kids will have been added to the list of waiting wishes – kids like 5-year-old Penny, who is fighting cancer.
During her time at the hospital for cancer treatments, Penny would play with her doctors’ stethoscopes, “help” with doing lab draws and emulate her caretakers, and play pretend as one of her medical providers helped her be less afraid. That bravery was crucial as Penny experienced some major medical setbacks, like losing her vision and some of her hearing. Through these roadblocks, her impending wish day gave her so much more hope to look forward to.
Today, your gift for wish kids like Penny will be MATCHED toward our goal to raise $72,000 before the end of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month – in honor of the 72 kids who are diagnosed with critical illnesses each day. This is a powerful moment to DOUBLE your impact for kids going through the toughest moments of their lives, so please:
In honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, will you make a donation now? Your gift will go TWICE as far toward making more waiting wishes come true for kids who are growing up with cancer and other critical illnesses.
Penny’s most heartfelt wish was for a doctor-themed playhouse. Now, she has her very own lighthearted, peaceful space when she needs it most. Getting the chance to just be a kid in her playhouse has given her renewed strength to persevere through her treatments and crucial relief from the stress of her medical journey.
Wishes like Penny’s really do have the power to change lives – not only providing joy and fun but they can also help in creating better health outcomes and increasing a child’s odds of recovery. It’s why many medical providers agree that a wish experience is a necessary part of a child’s medical journey.
With the list of kids who are waiting for wishes growing longer every day, it’s an important moment for you to take advantage of this chance to double your impact before this match expires at the end of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month: Please, will you donate now to have your gift DOUBLED toward providing more kids with life-changing wish experiences? |
