We grant wishes for children in Barbados aged 2 to 16 who are living with a serious illness. A trip to Disney World, a laptop for school, a princess party. Whatever they dream of, we do our very best to make it happen.
Every wish starts with one simple question we ask each child we meet:
"If you could have one wish, what would it be?"
From the first phone call to the big day, our volunteers stay with the family the whole way. We take care of the planning, so the child and their family can just enjoy it.
A parent, guardian, doctor, nurse or social worker tells us about the child. Kids can reach out to us themselves, too.
A medical professional confirms the child's diagnosis, so we know the wish is safe for them.
Somewhere to go, someone to be, something to have or someone to meet. It's completely their choice.
Our wish team, donors and partners pull it all together, and the wish comes true.
Each one happened because someone donated, volunteered or sponsored a wish.
There are lots of ways to lend a hand, big or small. Pick whatever works for you.
