“My daughter beat cancer, and [her wish] was like a celebration of she made it. We made it.” – Jennifer, Jonie’s mom 💙

Jonie’s big sister spotted a rarity in her eye, which led to a devastating cancer diagnosis, six months of chemotherapy and Jonie’s eye being removed. Her wish to see every animal she loves became a light of hope and joy for Jonie’s family as she recovered. “I [have] seen half of them, but then I really wanted to see all of them – and some don’t live around here,” Jonie said.

On her wish, Jonie fed peanuts to a gorilla and met a friendly llama and giraffes. But the highlight was a surprise unicorn photoshoot. “I loved it!” Jonie said. 🦄

This summer, you can help give more children facing critical illnesses renewed hope for brighter days ahead. ☀️ Give now: wish.org/colorado/summer-wishes

Diagnosed at birth with a nervous system disorder that limits his mobility, A***n experiences challenges that make it difficult for him to move freely. Trips to the park are a favorite family activity, but many public playgrounds often make it hard for A***n to join in the fun. That’s when A***n decided on his wish – to have a wheelchair accessible playground right in his own backyard.

Today, A***n has a safe, inclusive space where he can play and explore with ease. “A***n’s wish was a true blessing, especially during these times.” – Alondra, A***n’s mom 💙

This , we celebrate wishes like A***n’s that helped make his favorite activity more accessible.

Six-year-old Dre has always been drawn to trains. At the Longmont Public Library, he could spend hours watching the model train weave through tiny towns and tunnels. When Make-A-Wish Colorado asked Dre about his wish, he knew he wanted a train set just like that at home, so the magic could live with him every day!

On the day his wish was granted, members of the Boulder Model Railroad Club and students from Rock Canyon High School, who had featured Dre during their Wish Week earlier this year, worked together to transform Dre's room into a miniature railroad!

When Dre walked in to see his very own model train, his smile was enormous! Dre's wish showed the power of communities coming together to bring the heart of a child's wish to life.

Parker's wish to have a party full of his favorite things was an incredible celebration and tribute to not just what he loves, but what he is loved for by so many people.

Balloon animals, bubbles, reggae music, popsicles and more filled the room and all of Parker's favorite people and things converged for an unforgettable wish celebrating the impact of one incredible kid.

Thank you to Vectra Bank Colorado, as well as our longtime supporters STARZ and Sugarwish and all the volunteers whose generosity and teamwork helped bring this wish to life!
