Act Seven: Wish (1 hr)

I've been volunteering with Make A Wish for five years as a wish grantor. Today I had a visit with a very nice family to discuss the child's wish. For their privacy I won't go into many more details than that.

Make a Wish has always been a charity I fully support and thoroughly enjoy every moment and every family I meet. The children have taught me so much, they are all so strong, optimistic and brave and I can only hope that in a similar situation I would be the same way, but as adults we tend to be a lot more pessimistic. It really helps me to put things into perspective, these children are wonderful role models.

This is my first act of volunteering for my year of kindness, so I have 1 hour toward the 50 hours of volunteering I'm hoping to achieve in the next year.
