Give Kids the World for adults?

Is there something like give kids the world for adults?
My 30 year old cousin is dying from cancer, he has 2 year old twins. A trip to disney would be magical for them. Please keep them in your prayers.

They will absolutely be in my prayers! I hope he can find something magical for him and his family!

My thoughts are with your cousin and his family.

I haven't heard of any 'Wish' type organization for adults. The closest would be a camp for young adult survivors.

Give Kids the World is not a wish granting organization in and of itself. There is no similar resort for adults, but that does not mean that there are no wish granting companies for adults.

I can think of two that would meet your criteria. The Dream Foundation grants wishes to adults with a life expectancy of one year or less. The individual themselves must request it. Click on the link and it will take you to their application.

The other one is Fairygodmother.org. Their website is not working right now, but I believe they also require a life expectancy of 1 year or less. They might be the ones who not currently granting wishes, I'm not sure. But it's at least worth checking out.

Hope this helps.

Yes, there are wish granting groups for adults who are terminal. I found several last year when I was looking for one of my patients. Google that, or similar terms. Also, my neighbor's family did something similar last year among themselves for a very ill member - they basically all pitched in and planned and paid for a trip to Disney for the young man and his family. Hope you can get something going. Good luck.
