Make-A-Wish experiences often involve travel, especially with kids from the CNMI and Guam. Each year, Make-A-Wish sends several wish kids and their families on trips and help make their dreams come true with help from our generous communities.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Make-A-Wish Foundation often arranges travel for wish kids to reach their wish destinations, whether it\u2019s to meet a celebrity, go to their favorite theme park or a shopping spree or reconnect with extended family who have moved away,\u201d said Eric Tydingco, Make-A-Wish Board chairman.<\/p>\n
\u201cAir travel is a critical resource as we work to grant the heartfelt\u2014and oftentimes very creative\u2014wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions,\u201d said Victor Camacho, Make-A-Wish\u2019s executive director. \u201cDonating to Make-A-Wish will allow us to continue creating countless lasting moments for children with life-threatening medical conditions here in our communities. You can truly make a difference in a child\u2019s life.\u201d<\/p>\n
