Sample of Wishes Granted

Nancy
We traveled with Nancy to visit her daughter in Arizona who is battling cancer. While the circumstances are unfortunate, we are incredibly excited to have provided an opportunity Nancy otherwise would not have to spend a few precious days with her daughter.
   

Aleks and Tamila
We recently granted the wish of Aleks and Tamila - Russian immigrants who lost everything they had in the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. When asked, they told us they have always dreamed of fishing together. Our foundation recently granted their wish and took them to Keystone to spend the day fishing on a private lake high in the Rocky Mountains.
