The Make a Wish Foundation is special. The organisation grants the wishes of children between 3 and 18 years old with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy.
A wish is something that gives children the opportunity to look outside their illness. Research shows and doctors agree that wishes can help improve a child's quality of life and produce better health outcomes. But making these dreams come true requires financial support. |
During my hike to Rome, I had hoped to raise 1.136 euro for Make a Wish. That would have been 1 euro for every kilometer that I walked. But thanks to so many kind donations, I was able to raise 1.815 euro. That is just incredible! Thank you so much to everybody who did a donation.
My fundraising is still in the top 10 of most successful actions for Make a Wish Belgium. I'm so grateful and proud. WOULD YOU LIKE TO READ MORE ABOUT MAKE A WISH

JARNEThis young man loved to ride his bike in the past, but was no longer able to because of his illness. Make a Wish arranged a wheelchair bike for him. On July 18th 2023, he finally received it. That day, he got to make a ride again together with his family, something he wasn't able to do for a long time. The sun was out and on the way, they stopped at a playground and at French fries shop. Jarne felt like a king and had the time of his life. Since that day, he checks every morning if his bike is still there. His mother said: 'the power of a wish, it really is true. The boost for him and us as a family is just incredible. We had moments which we will cherish forever.'
thorFor months, Thor was too sick to be able to dream. Make a Wish learned him and his family that dreams are important to keep fighting. So they organized an unforgettable day for him. Thor was picked up from his home in a yellow lamborghini. He was driven to Lago Beveren, a subtropical swimming paradise where his friends were waiting for him. They got to try padel, VR and received access to the pools after closing time. It was a day Thor will never forget. The mother said it was just so incredibly powerful to forget all the worries for a while and to just enjoy life. The positive energy gave Thor and his family a massive push to keep going.
millaMilla’s battle against her illness took a lot of her energy. But still she always kept cherishing one big dream: spending a weekend in Pairi Daiza. Make a Wish made this possible. She got to spend two days among her favorite animals. In the restaurant, she got to sit on the biggest chair like a queen. When she made an evening walk through the park, she heard the wolves sing. Two days flew by so fast. At the end, she received a cuddly animal she could take home. Milla and her family are extremely grateful for this opportunity. These were definitely two days Milla will never forget and which will give her strength for the difficult times ahead.

The magic happened before
With the money, Samugam was able to buy 100 beds for children who until then had to sleep on the floor. A massive difference! Since then, the children sleep better, are healthier and perform better at school. The beds were installed in 2017 and are still there until this day.
