Even though she lives with a rare cancer, Vanessa continues to think of the environment. For her wish, she wanted to give back by helping 4ocean clean the ocean. Her mom said, “This was a wonderful & unforgettable experience for Vanessa - an experience of a lifetime!” #CCAM

Wish kid Alexis loves Harry Potter. In 2018, she was diagnosed with kidney failure, and her wish was to go to Harry Potter World! Harry Potter World "was life-changing and a lot more special than other trips, and it made the trip a lot more enjoyable," said Alexis. #WishWednesday

#TBT to days when wish kids, like Annie, would come into our office to have a special wish moment with family and staff! We are glad to still be granting wishes, but things sure do look different these days!
