Back in 2005, Dream Come True made it possible for a trip to Disney World that meant coming face to face with the Toy Story crew. Days at the parks like this one, full of characters and dress-up and the whole Disney World experience, are exactly what these wishes are about, then and now. None of these trips happen without our supporters, and we’re thankful for every one of you.
Back in 2017, a teenager who had always wanted to swim with dolphins got his chance at Atlantis on Paradise Island. He spent the day at Dolphin Cay, in the water with them up close. It was a wish he’d held onto for a long time, and the trip made it real. None of it happens without our supporters, who we’re grateful for every day.
In 2018, a Dream Come True family spent time in Hawaii, surrounded by blue water, green hills, and wide-open island views. Their helicopter ride was one of the highlights, giving them a chance to see the coastline and mountains from a place most people only dream about. We are grateful to the donors and friends who made this trip possible and helped give this family memories they will always carry with them.
Recently, Dream Come True made it possible for one young animal lover to spend a full day at Tanganiyika Wildlife Park in Kansas. She swam with otters, fed a giraffe by hand, and met a serval cat that seemed to take a particular liking to her, coming back to the front of its habitat every time she visited. We are so grateful to the supporters who make experiences like this possible for the children and families we serve.
In 2018, Dream Come True made it possible for one family to take on Disney World together.

Thank you to our supporters for making days like this one possible.
Few places spark wonder quite like Disney World, and one family found that out for themselves in 2017. Balloon animals, beloved characters, and a park buzzing with excitement filled the day from start to finish. The supporters of Dream Come True made it all happen, and we cannot thank them enough.
Christmas took on a whole new meaning for one family during a 2019 trip to the most magical place on earth.

Dream Spotlight | In September 1986, Dream Come True made it possible for one young Phillies fan to enjoy the thrill of game day, complete with a visit from Mike Schmidt himself.

Minnie Mouse was waiting, and in 2018, Dream Come True made it possible for one little girl to meet her face to face. Surrounded by family and the unmistakable energy of Disney World, it was the kind of day that feels almost too good to be real.

Fresh powder, towering pines, and the wide-open mountains of Colorado set the stage for one unforgettable wish in 1993. At 10 years old, this young dreamer took on the slopes with courage and joy, carving a path down the mountain with the Rocky Mountain scenery stretching endlessly in every direction. Moments like this one exist because of the incredible generosity of our supporters, and we are deeply thankful for every one of you.
