✨ Jensen’s Magical Disney Adventure 🏰
Five-year-old Dreamer Jensen experienced a Disney adventure filled with excitement, laughter, and the chance to simply be a kid again.
From the moment he arrived at Give Kids the World Village, Jensen was amazed by everything around him, from the rides and arcade to the famous sprinkles robot and endless ice cream. As his mom shared, it was “so much more than he even knew.” 💙
Throughout the week, Jensen discovered a love for roller coasters and water rides. After braving Tower of Terror, his response was simple: “I want to do it again!” Dudley Do-Right’s Ripsaw Falls quickly became a favorite, along with Slinky Dog Dash.

The surprises continued when Jensen and his family attended a special event with at Give Kids the World Village. They spent time with MrBeast and his family before receiving an incredible VIP Disney experience the following morning. They entered Magic Kingdom before the park officially opened, were welcomed by Disney characters, and enjoyed attractions opened especially for the Dream families.
But one of the most meaningful parts of Jensen’s Dream was seeing his confidence and joyful spirit return. During treatment, he had become anxious and withdrawn. On this trip, his family watched him eagerly explore, laugh freely, and embrace every new experience. In Minion Land, his joyful shouts of “BANANA!” and full-belly laughter were sounds his family had not heard in a very long time.
The trip also gave Jensen the chance to celebrate some of the childhood moments he had missed while undergoing treatment, including holidays and birthdays spent in the hospital.
Looking back, Jensen’s mom shared just how much the experience meant after months of treatments, hospital stays, and missed milestones:
“It was really dark. This made up for that in some ways.”
Perhaps the greatest gift of all was seeing their little boy feel like himself again. As his mom reflected, “He was like the old Jensen before cancer for awhile.” 💙
Toby’s Dream Foundation is incredibly grateful to and Beast Philanthropy for helping make Jensen’s unforgettable Dream come true and giving his family memories they will treasure forev

🚀 Ivy’s Dream Reached New Heights ✨
Seven-year-old Dreamer Ivy and her family experienced an unforgettable adventure in Orlando filled with theme park thrills, incredible space exploration, and, most importantly, precious time together.
Ivy’s space adventure took her behind the scenes at some of the world’s most innovative facilities, including SpaceX and Blue Origin. She met astronaut Tony Antonelli and members of the crew, experienced a simulated rocket launch, received special keepsakes, and even saw her own name and photo displayed on the screens at Blue Origin! 🚀
But some of Ivy’s favorite memories happened at the theme parks. At Universal Orlando, she bravely conquered her fear of Revenge of the Mummy, and immediately wanted to ride it again! At Magic Kingdom, a special second ride on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure with her brother created the perfect ending to an unforgettable day. She also loved meeting Donkey and spending time at Give Kids the World Village.
For Ivy’s mom, this Dream offered something even more meaningful: a break from appointments and everyday worries and the chance to simply be together as a family. 💙
“Bottom line, it was a great trip because we got to take a break from appointments, removing ourselves from home, and not worry about anything.”
Ivy’s Dream was filled with courage, discovery, laughter, and memories her family will carry with them for years to come.
Toby’s Dream Foundation is deeply grateful to , Beast Philanthropy, Give Kids the World Village, Kennedy Space Center, SpaceX, and Blue Origin. Together, their generosity helped make Ivy’s extraordinary Dream a reality.

Harley’s World Series Dream Reveal
Some of the best Dreams are the ones you never see coming.
Seventeen-year-old Dreamer Harley thought he was simply attending a special event in New Jersey. What he didn’t know was that a life-changing surprise was waiting for him.
When suddenly walked in, Harley and the other kids were completely shocked. After spending an unforgettable evening on the roller coasters, the group headed into Toys “R” Us, where MrBeast announced that every child could pick out everything they wanted.
Then came Harley’s surprise. Knowing Harley’s greatest Dream was to attend the 2026 World Series, MrBeast pulled him aside, promised him tickets to the World Series and gave him some MLB swag.
His mom was overwhelmed with emotion.
Just two days later, Harley underwent surgery as part of his cancer treatment. As he continues his fight with courage and determination, he now has an unforgettable October to look forward to.
Words cannot fully express our gratitude to and Beast Philanthropy. Their generosity, compassion, and willingness to create unforgettable moments transformed Harley’s dream into something even greater than he ever imagined.
