Why supporting the Dream Team (and groups like it) are worth the effort

I happened to be reading the online version of my local newspaper and ran across this heartwarming story from a girl who's wish to meet Miley Cyrus came true.

So Salem (produced by The Roanoke Times): Kelly Farmer meets Miley Cyrus

While this was a different group than the DWT Dream Team (which benefits the Make A Wish Foundation), the intent and the result is the same. Through the generosity of some, this girl's wish to meet Miley Cyrus (and go to Disneyland) came true.

I hope you take the time to read this article and look at some of the pictures to see the joy Kelly experienced and then consider helping making another child's Disney wish to come true.

Click here to contribute to the DWT Dream Team. The new goal is $55,000. Together we can make a wish (or even wishes) come true!

EDIT: One of the local TV stations, WDBJ, did a story on Kelly as well:

Merry Christmas from the DisneyDaddy!

As we get into the heart of the holiday season, I wanted to take a moment to wish each and every one of you a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and Happy Kwanzaa. It really doesn't matter what holiday you celebrate, they all recognize the spirit of giving to others.

It is with that in mind that I ask you to consider the spirit of giving.

Many Disney fans know a friend of mine, Lou Mongello. He has a project called the Dream Team in which he helps the Make a Wish Foundation send seriously ill kids to Walt Disney World. The Dream Team has a goal to raise $45,000 by the 100th episode of the WDW Radio Show, which is in a few weeks.

As of this post, they've raised a little more than $43,000. Please consider helping to send a seriously ill child experience the magic of Walt Disney World. For many of these kids, it can make an enormous difference in their life. I hope you will consider supporting this program.

You can make a donation at this Web site: http://www.firstgiving.com/dwtdreamteam

Thank you and may you have a very happy and safe holiday!
