Children's Wish, Canada's National Wish Granting Foundation Celebrates 25 Years
Date:3/2/2009

tory of a young girl whose wish was to give her mother a locket so that her mom would have something to remember her by. Today, nearly 15,000 wishes later, each wish continues to be as unique as the child who makes it. A wish can range from a personal computer or a home theatre system, to travel or a meeting with a celebrity.

"At Children's Wish we have never refused a wish to an eligible child, and we never will. Thank you for enabling us to fill each wish child's life with a little magic," adds Kotsopoulos.

Children's Wish maintains impeccable standards in delivering those wishes to children and their families. "I honestly believe that these wishes keep children healthy," says Karen, a wish mom. "It gives them something to look forward to and helps keep them strong."

When granting a wish, the Foundation has always ensured that the wish involves the entire family, as the parents and siblings usually go through so much during the illness of a young family member. For more wish stories, go to www.childrenswish.ca and click on Wish Tales.
