Marina's Wish
Nature-lover Marina wanted a truly unique wish and so Marina's Way was created...
More of Marina's StoryThe Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Vermont has granted 500 wishes since its inception in 1989.
Wishes typically fall into four categories: I wish to have, I wish to meet, I wish to go, I wish to be. Vermont wishes fall mostly into the I wish to go category, with I wish to have wishes following closely behind. All our wishes are special moments for our wish kids, no matter if the wish is to have a computer or go on an African safari.
