Make a Wish Foundation (National)

What My Individual Has Done to Help The Community
Frank Shankwitz grants children's wishes. The children with the wishes usually have life threatening diseases that can only be ignored when having fun.
Sometimes they take the kids family on a vacation or have there favorite celebrity give a surprise visit! http://www.wish.org/
How Did It Help
Make A Wish Foundation makes kids wishes come true. They also helps children notice that it doesn't matter if you have a disease , your dreams can still come true. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrGC4eF-UmI

What I can Do To Help
I could shovel my neighbors driveway without any charge. I also might ask people if they would like there lawn mowed. I could start my own program that helps people that live in homeless shelters. The program would donate hats, coats, shoes, pants, shirts, food, etc. I could do Adopt A Highway, or volunteer at a local hospital. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrGC4eF-UmI
