ORLANDO, Fla. — A teen from Central Florida named Tripp is preparing for a sport fishing adventure in Mexico, made possible by the Make-A-Wish Foundation and local business owners.

For 18-year-old Tripp Clunan and his family, a week of fishing in Cabo San Lucas is more than a vacation — it’s a rare chance for joy after years defined by medical challenges.

The FOX 35 Care Force heads out to a local Make-A-Wish reveal party on Wednesday. Jeremy, known fondly as “Tripp," is a brave young man who has been fighting a respiratory disease. As part of his wish, Tripp will embark on a thrilling adventure to Cabo, Mexico, for a sport fishing experience of a lifetime.

Members of Watersound Fountains, an independent living community in Inlet Beach, harnessed their zest for life and passion for helping others to good use this month. The community hosted a “Fashion Show for a Cause,” a fundraising event to support Make-A-Wish® Central and Northern Florida, that featured members of the community as the models.

Raney’s first ever truck show fundraiser brought in more than $90,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

For parents of healthy children, it’s easy to take milestones, memories, and everyday joys for granted. But for families facing the unimaginable — a child battling a critical illness — those everyday moments become priceless. That’s where Make-A-Wish Foundation steps in, delivering not just joy, but hope.

The Raney’s Road to Wishes event will take place at Raney’s Chrome Shop at 3030 W. Silver Springs Blvd., Ocala, with proceeds to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

The 10th Annual Fields Auto Group Jacksonville Walk For Wishes, held at the Seawalk Pavilion on May 2, raised $103,600.
