I wish to have a shopping spree

Give the Gift of Hope - Eric

Eric is an active eight-year-old whose smile lights up any room he enters. You would never know that he is bravely battling a blood disorder. When thinking about the perfect wish, Eric knew he wanted to have a shopping spree. Riding in style with his family in a luxury limousine, Eric arrived at the Connecticut Post mall where he spent the day shopping for clothing, shoes, and toys at his favorite stores.

You can give hope to a child waiting for their wish this holiday season.

Right now, over 350 Connecticut children are eagerly awaiting their wishes to be granted – seeking that glimmer of hope. This is the largest list of waiting kids we’ve ever seen.

Wishes are more than a “nice” thing for these children. They are transformative, helping kids with critical illnesses build strength, hope and joy. Research shows that wishes granted can help build the physical and emotional strength these children need to fight.​

The primary hurdle to granting these wishes is funding, and this is where you can make a profound difference, offering a gift like no other this holiday season. Join a community united in altruism, fueled by the power of a wish.

Every wish kid is counting on you and wishes can’t wait. Your support can turn wishes into reality, providing hope for kids throughout Connecticut.
