Review for Make-A-Wish Foundation Connecticut, Trumbull, CT, USA
Make-A-Wish CT went above and beyond to grant my daughter’s wish to get a Princess Makeover at Disney World! When we found out that Bippity Boppity Boutique didn’t carry a dress in her size, because of a significant weight gain due to med change, our Wish Granters reaches out to a local CT designer to have her dream mermaid dress made for her. On top of that, they made sure our entire family of 7 were well taken care of during our trip. Having a child with special needs is difficult on the whole family, during Lillee’s Wish Trip we were all able to enjoy ourselves and escape from the stress of Lillee’s diagnoses. I knew going in that Lillee’s Wish would tremendously impact her life and increase her morale but I had no idea how much it would help our other children as well. Our entire family is eternally grateful to Make-A-Wish, our Wish Granters and all of their sponsors and volunteers.
Review for Madonna Place, Inc., Norwich, CT, USA
Love this place, when I was in high school I volunteered here as part of my Early Childhood Development program. The staff was super friendly and I learned a lot about what they offer to help people. Little did I know that a few years later they would be helping me and my family with diapers and formula when times were tough. They also have a clothing closet, kitchen you can cook in packed with food, and many classes to help families with the struggles of everyday life.
