September 1 marked the start of a new fiscal year, and we are excited for what lies ahead! In Fiscal Year 2025, we’ll work together to reach our goal of granting every eligible wish. Mahalo for your commitment to bringing the power of a wish to Hawaii keiki.

In this issue of Wishful Thinking, you’ll read about:

• Randallyn’s wish to be a supermodel in New York City—after enduring three open-heart surgeries, she’s proving that her strength, like her dreams, is limitless. Watch Randallyn's wish come true.
   
• Reison’s wish to go to Walt Disney World® took flight thanks to the heartfelt support of Alaska Airlines. From meticulous coordination to in-flight accommodations for his medical condition, Alaska Airlines’ dedication and care were truly first class.
   
• Meet the newest members of our leadership community! We’re extending a warm aloha to Todd Bedford, Deanna Butler, Erik DeRyke, Travis Kikuchi, Tricia Fujikawa Lee, Ed Schultz, and Garret Sugai, who have joined our Board of Directors. We are also welcoming eight new members to our Young Leaders Board.
   
• Introducing the Wish Society—an exclusive group of compassionate individuals committed to forever changing the lives of our wish keiki and their families.
   
• Hawaii Softball Foundation’s support is a home run for wish kids!
   
• Double your gift thanks to the Love’s brand and Hawaii Foodservice Alliance! Their Spirit of Giving initiative is matching every donation made to Make-A-Wish Hawaii up to $25,000 through Giving Tuesday, December 3, 2024.

Plus, learn about all the ways you can gift a wish this holiday season, including joining Make-A-Wish Hawaii for Jingle Rock Run presented by Road Builders Corporation at Ko Olina Resort on December 15!
