SPEAKER: Kate Sample Sunshine Foundation
The sunshine foundation is a non profit which basically started with the kindness and generosity of one man..Bill Sample, a Philadelphia Police Officer. In 1976 Bill founded Sunshine foundation, the Original Wish Granting Organization with the expressed mission of answering the dreams of chronically ill, seriously ill, physically challenged and abused children ages 3-18 whose families cannot afford the child request due to financial strain on the family. Sunshine has fulfilled over 40000 dream requests. The most popular is to Disney world in Florida. To make families more comfortable, Sunshine Foundation built the Dream village in Florida which features 9 themed cottages, a heated pool, putt putt course and playground equipped for special needs children. When families are sent to Dream Village, it is all expenses paid including air fare,rental car,spending money, and park tickets.
