A New York child with special needs was granted a Magical Dream from the Sunshine Foundation for a family trip to Florida.
Amy Germosen lives with the challenges of Dandy-Walker Syndrome, a rare brain disorder.
“Thank you so much for this amazing opportunity for my family to come together and spend time with each other, It was a blessing to see all my grandchildren smiling and happy the whole trip. Amy loved seeing the fireworks at the theme parks and enjoyed swimming in the pool at the Sunshine Foundation Dream Village. Thank you to the foundation and sponsors for giving my Amy her dream come true!” said Amy’s grandmother.

Sunshine Foundation answers dreams to children with life-long severe chronic illnesses and conditions such as: spina bifida, cerebral palsy, Level 3 severe autism, Down syndrome, hydrocephalus, severe epilepsy, Sickle Cell Disease, blindness, deafness, trauma from abuse, and others.
To make these dreams a reality for children that may be turned away from other wish-granting organizations that require a life-threatening or critical diagnosis, Sunshine Foundation relies on the generosity of individuals, organizations, and corporations.
Amy’s “Dream Come True” was made possible through generous donations from Over the Rainbow Child Development Center, SJ Irish Pub Concepts LLC, and a generous donor. You can also help make a dream come true by donating at www.sunshinefoundation.org.
The most common request is a Magical Dream to visit Legoland, Universal Studios, Disney World, and SeaWorld while choosing to stay at the Sunshine Foundation Dream Village near Disney.
Sunshine Foundation also answers Special Dreams: shopping sprees, computers and iPads, outdoor playsets, above-ground swimming pools, family trips, cruises, adaptive tricycles and other special needs equipment, and many more.
