sunshine foundation®
The Original Wish Granting Organization
Sunshine Foundation's
sole purpose is to answer the dreams of chronically ill, seriously
ill, physically challenged and abused children, ages three to
eighteen, whose families cannot fulfill their requests due to the
financial strain that child's illness may cause.
Sunshine
Foundation's Dream
Village
Most of the children we serve wish to visit the
Central Florida theme parks and attractions when
asked the simple question: “If you could have one
dream, what would it be?” Since this has been the
#1 dream request every year, the Dream Village was
built in 1989 and officially opened in January
1990. We fly the child and their entire immediate
family to Orlando for an all-expenses paid
Once-In-A-Lifetime vacation away from their
routine of hospitals, therapies and medical
treatments. We supply airfare, theme park tickets,
rental vehicle, lodging and expense money for food
and souvenirs.
The families enjoy LEGOLAND
Florida, Universal Orlando, SeaWorld and/or Walt
Disney World each day, then return to the Dream
Village to relax in their peaceful but magical
cottage. The Dream Village is a 22-acre resort
nestled in a fairy tale setting and offers
amenities and activities, all specially designed
to be accessible for wheelchairs and other special
needs. Each cottage has a unique and magical theme
designed especially for children. Since its
opening, the Dream Village has welcomed over
20,000 children!
The Dream Village has nine unique
cottages, each with its own childhood theme. The
Dream Village accessible amenities include a
swimming pool, playground and miniature golf
course.
