Christmas Dreams
because some kids can’t wait for Christmas.
Our Mission
To provide Christmas experiences 365 days a year for children and their families who are battling life threatening illnesses.
Our Impact
What if you could forget you were sick and just enjoy being a kid? What if you could experience a bit of Christmas hope, joy and magic in the midst of the struggle even if just for a moment?
According to Make a Wish “wishes (or in our case “dreams”) can increase the physical and emotional well-being of these kids, and create happy, lifelong memories. In fact, wish experiences are as much about the days that follow, as they are about the wish itself – because the impact of a wish can last forever. A wish experience can truly change a child’s life”
That is our goal as we make the Christmas Dreams of children come true. We help families create memories to last a lifetime, we bring cheer and instill hope to those who so desperately need it.
