Memories of Love - Wish Foundation for HD Adults and ChildrenBonnie   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #1129 of 1488 |
The below email is from Jason Mundy who leads our Jacksonville, FL HD Support
group. The Memories of Love website doesn't indicate that wishes are solely for
Florida families so it appears wish grants would be open to any HD family!

Memories of Love is a 501 © (3) non-profit service organization supported by
companies and contributors from the general public. Our mission is single
focused to fulfill Florida dream vacations for families with young children and
a parent facing life threatening illness. We help create joyful lasting and
loving memories by sending the entire family for five days to Orlando, Florida
for a fun-filled vacation far removed from mounting medical bills, therapy and
hospital visits. Through the generosity of corporate partners/sponsors, we are
able to provide tickets to the area's best loved theme parks: Universal Studios
/ Island of Adventures DisneyWorld and SeaWorld, as well as a beautiful room at
one of 13 area Holiday Inn Resorts, meals, and financial support for travel and
incidentals.

Memories of Love is a great organization for people suffering from Huntington's
Disease. Just think of Make-a-Wish or Dreams Come True in reverse. Memories of
Love is dedicated to serving Adults that have children and also have a terminal
illnesses. There service offers on opportunity for children that have parents
with a terminal illness create memories that they can cherrish and hold on to
after their parent has passed.

This organization reached out to my family and provided my brother with a
wonderful Orlando Theme Park package. Kayla, his 4 year old daughter, has been
raving about the vacation since she has been back. With the high cost of
medication and treatments, my brother would of never been able to afford that
vacation.
Besides being a wonderful agency, the staff are some of the most caring and
genually nice people I have ever dealt with.

The attached file contains electronic copies of the required forms. If you need
help using the excel spreadsheet let me know, I can asssist you with entering
data into the forms.
