Twilight Wish Foundation

Description

• Twilight Wish Foundation is a national nonprofit that grants the wishes of low-income elderly across the U.S. Our mission is to honor and enrich the lives of deserving seniors through wish granting celebrations that connect generations. Our vision is to make the world a nicer place to age, one wish at a time. Since our founding in 2003, we have granted the wishes of over 2,590 senior citizens. Twilight Wish was founded in Doylestown, PA in 2003 by Cass Forkin after her chance encounter with several elderly women in a diner. After noticing them counting their change to pay their bill, Forkin anonymously paid their bill. Their gratitude for her simple gesture inspired Forkin to found Twilight Wish, the first national wish granting organization focused on the needs of the elderly. Twilight Wish fulfills wish requests for deserving seniors who are 68 and older or a permanent resident of a nursing facility. Wish recipents must also have a history of giving back to their community and an annual income of less than 200% of poverty level. Wishes granted range from simple basic needs wishes such as eyeglasses or a lift chair to more elaborate lifelong wishes such as meeting a favorite baseball player or a ride in a fighter jet. Sometimes a wish fulfills an immediate need and sometimes it is a last wish. Large or small, all wishes provide a meaningful thank you to the senior for a lifetime of service to others.
