Landon Horath was recently granted a dream from the Sunshine Foundation for a Shopping Spree. Landon lives with the challenges of having Eosinophilic esophagitis, a chronic disease of the esophagus.
“Landon received the generous gift of a shopping spree, and his favorite item is a Virtual Reality video game set! He chose a VR game setup because it gives him an escape when he’s not feeling well or is recovering from surgeries and procedures. He can still play with friends and enjoy an escape from the realities of medications and doctor’s offices. Having a chronic, lifelong illness can be a lot to cope with for a teenager and this helps him so much! He was also able to purchase additional games and some great new comfy clothes and shoes. He is so grateful to everyone who donated and made his wish possible! Our family is so thankful for this opportunity that we could not have provided for him without the help of the Sunshine Foundation,” said Logan’s Mother, Cassandra of Newcastle, OK.

Sunshine Foundation relies on the generosity of individuals, organizations, and corporations to make these dreams a reality for children who may be turned away from other wish-granting organizations that require a life-threatening or critical diagnosis.
Landon’s “Dream Come True” was made possible through a generous grant from Rite Aid Healthy Futures. 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 Disney World, Legoland, SeaWorld, and Universal Studios 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, plus many more.
Since 1976, the Sunshine Foundation has spread Sunshine into the lives of more than 42,000 children throughout the United States. For more information or to make a donation, please visit www.sunshinefoundation.org.
