Juneteenth reminds us to honor freedom, hope and possibility. That spirit feels especially meaningful alongside World Sickle Cell Day and Elijah’s story of creativity, strength and imagining what comes next.

Wish kid Elijah finds strength through creativity. 🎨 Living with a blood disorder, his wish to have animation equipment has helped him imagine what’s possible for his future as he brings his ideas to life. 💫💻

“[My wish] makes me feel stronger, smarter and happier.” – Elijah 💙

For Lenny and her family, a trip to Oahu was so much more than a vacation. It was a chance to step away from treatments, spend meaningful time together, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

“Oahu... you will always be our favorite trip. More than a vacation, this was the journey that gave Lenny back a piece of her childhood and gave our family time to heal, reconnect, and make memories we'll cherish forever.”

One of the most memorable moments of the trip was Lenny’s surf lesson. On her very first try, she stood up on the board and fell in love with surfing. For a child who loves the water, it was an experience she’ll never forget.

We are so grateful to have been part of Lenny’s journey and to help create moments of joy, hope, and healing for her family.

Every wish gives a child facing a critical illness something positive to look forward to and memories that can last a lifetime. Help us continue granting wishes by donating, volunteering, or referring a child who may be eligible for a wish. Head to wish.org/philadesv to learn more!

This National Best Friends Day, we’re celebrating the connections that bring comfort when it’s needed most. 💙

For wish kid Victoria, that meant being reunited with her pet Pomeranian – her best friend she had to say goodbye to when she traveled far from home for medical treatment.

Her wish to reunite with her furry friend brought back joy, renewed her strength, and gave her a piece of home during a time of uncertainty. 🐶

“After so much pain, my daughter deserved a break. Today we won, and this triumph gives us hope again. Thank you for making it possible.” – Victoria’s mom, Laura

As her mom shared:

"We had such an amazing time! Everyone got to do the things they wanted to do most on the trip, so it was really a wish come true for all of us. Such a perfect way to celebrate after this tumultuous past year. We’re already talking about how we all want to go back!"

Mom also shared, "We can’t thank you enough for making this possible for us!"
