Review for One Simple Wish, Trenton, NJ, USA
I've been a part of One Simple Wish for over 10 years now. This is a wonderful non-profit that helps foster youth with much needed basic items of life. What I like a lot about this organization, is that they help those that have aged out of foster care and need a little support from the "village" as many don't have a family to turn to. The people that work here are amazing and do all they can to help the youth as well as answer any questions from a wish grantor. Often you get a lovely thank you note from the kids too!
Review for One Simple Wish, Trenton, NJ, USA
A great nonprofit with well organized staff. They help foster kids across the nation to feel loved and important. Foster kids that age out are not forgotten and able to participate by having their wishes granted too. Many wishes are to help a child advance in their education as well as meet a basic need. So often foster kids only have minutes to throw a few of their things into a garbage bag or leave with nothing at all. This organization helps those kids to regain a sense of being a normal kid and to know that others care about them.
Review for One Simple Wish, Trenton, NJ, USA
I so much enjoy being a part of One Simple wish as many wishes of Foster Children can mean so much to them. Some wishes can help a student complete homework on their very own computer instead of being out late at night at the library or falling behind in their school work. I am touched by so many simple wishes that most of us take for granted. The need of clothes for school or a first job can be life changing. One Simple Wish makes sure the youth get their wish quickly and the staff are so nice to work with. Often Foster Kids leave their prior residence with little more than the clothes they are wearing. These kids need to know that someone cares about them enough to grant their wish. I have so much fun granting special wishes for some very deserving youth.
Review for One Simple Wish, Trenton, NJ, USA
One Simple wish is one of the very best nonprofits that I have encountered and have had the honor to support. It is so overwhelming to be able to grant a wish of a child who needs something to make their life better. Many of the wishes help to get a child on the right path and help them make a better future for themselves by assisting in their goal of attending college. For the younger children, they just need a wish granted to help them have fun. All of the children no matter the age, simply want to know that someone cares and they are not forgotten. The staff is always available to answer questions; they are an awesome group of people. For a long time I have wanted to be involved in the lives of children and I find that One Simple Wish was exactly what I was looking for. I often recommend this nonprofit to others.
