17 year-old Victoria resident Delaney set sail from Miami through the Caribbean in March 2010 aboard Royal Caribbean’s Liberty of the Seas.
16 year-old Corey has been dealing with a congenital heart defect his entire life, but he loves to travel and thought long and hard about where he wanted to go for his wish. After much consideration, he decided on London!
7 year old Markus, who has Rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare form of soft tissue cancer, wanted to visit Walt Disney World for his wish so he and his family were off to Florida on May 31st.
Carolann's a fan of all things Japanese: anime, the funky fashion, the language, the culture, the food, etc. So going to Japan was always a dream. Until now.
Even though his playground had been delivered to the house more than 2 months earlier, 5 year-old Curtis had to wait very patiently for the ground to thaw in Hudson's Hope, BC so that his playground could be safely erected.
Leila is your typical 11-year-old girl. She loves Ringette, Sushi, Hip-Hop, SpongeBob SquarePants and Club Penguin, but especially the Disney Channel’s High School Musical movies. Unlike most young fans of the show, however, Leila had the incredible opportunity to meet its handsome star, Zac Efron!

It's almost back to school time! Has your school signed up for Kids for Wish Kids? Run by kids for kids, students develop their own fundraisers to help grant wishes for other kids just like them, but with one major difference...our kids are coping with a life-threatening medical condition and really need something positive to look forward to and experience with their families.
Have you thought about planned giving and the tax benefits you could realize?
We can’t make wishes come true without your help. If you’ve been inspired by our wish stories, please consider joining our Stars monthly giving program.
A huge THANK YOU to Cassie for....well....being you! Hailing from the lovely suburb of Abbotsford, Cassie has been an invaluable volunteer wish grantor since November 2008.
