Our Special Relationship with the Make-A-Wish® Foundation

Our commitment to the Make-A-Wish® Foundation began in 1997, when a child named Elysia wished to give personalized gifts so she would always be remembered. What began with her wish is now a beloved annual program. With your help, we've raised over $5 million to help make wishes come true for children with life-threatening medical conditions.

For every purchase of our Make-A-Wish collectibles, we'll donate $2 of the purchase price, with a minimum guaranteed donation of $250,000, to the Make-A-Wish Foundation®. For more information, visit wish.org.

Meet Olivia

Olivia was born with a heart condition.
She had a stroke and five open heart surgeries.

Despite all that, she is a happy little girl with a growl
of a giggle. She loves miniature golf, swimming
and playing with friends. (She wouldn't brag about it,
but we will: she has a hole-in-one on her golfing resume!)

When Olivia's wish was granted last summer, it was
the first time she went anywhere that didn't involve doctors,
a hospital visit or an invasive procedure. Each time
you buy a Make-A-Wish® collectible, you help make
a wish come true for a brave child like Olivia.

Update on Emily

Emily and her family list their trip to Hawaii as one of the best experiences they've ever had. Emily was featured in Things Remembered stores during the 2008 holiday season. At the time, she was suffering from leukemia.

A year later, she's off many of her medications and currently there's no sign of cancer!

Emily says she'd like to thank Things Remembered and Make-A-Wish® for their support.
