13,000th Wish - Noah's New Ride

Noah is an independent 9-year-old who doesn’t let his neuromuscular disorder hold him back.

His wish to have an all-terrain wheelchair is just what he needs. The custom-built ride is Noah’s favorite color, orange, and has oversize wheels that can climb hills and power through dirt and sand.

Noah and his family recently moved from Chicago because the harsh winters made it impossible for him to be outside. Now in the Florida climate with Noah’s extreme ride, there are endless adventures in the future – camping, fishing, and exploring the beach and nature trails. His dad said, now “Noah can literally go anywhere.”

"His wish gives him the accessibility and the independence that he deserves."

"A lot of the kids are able to do the things that he can’t do. This gives him the opportunity to do those things and be a part of the group with everybody else,” his dad added.

Noah’s wish marks an important milestone for Make-A-Wish Southern Florida, as the chapter is only the 5th in the world to grant 13,000 wishes!
