Welcome to precioustouchfoundation.org, the online home of Precious Touch Foundation Inc. It has always been said in Barbados, and no doubt throughout the world, that children are our most "precious" possessions. This is very much a true statement, and so a group of persons recognising this fact decided to embrace the children of our nation from age two to sixteen who have been diagnosed with a life-threatening medical condition.
Precious Touch Foundation Inc. was conceptualised from a television movie, "A Child's Wish", which aired on Lifetime Television in November 2003. The movie was about a little girl diagnosed with cancer whose wish was to meet the President of the United States. So emotionally intriguing was the movie that it prompted the setting up of a similar organisation here in Barbados.
We believe that through our Wish Granting Program, children can enjoy the peace and happiness of life, replacing suffering with warm smiles and laughter. We also try to bring joy and comfort to these special children, and create a magical wish experience that will last a lifetime, not only for the child but in the hearts of every person involved in the wish.
As we continue in our efforts to help these medically challenged children, you too can play your part by giving your valuable time, generous donations and sponsorship. I now invite you to explore our website and learn more about Precious Touch Foundation Inc.
If they're between 2 and 16 and living with a life-threatening illness, we'd love to hear about them. Getting started is easy.
