Thanks to a collaboration with the Mattoon Lions Club, Gloria’s wish will soon be granted!

Gloria has been losing her sight due to macular degeneration for a long time. She lives by herself and longs to see again so she can fully live her life. She misses participating in the activities at her senior center and seeing the faces of her family. She raised two sons on her own and is described as a loving and caring person. She wishes for a special assistive device designed for people who are legally blind. The “eSight-4” glasses are known to enhance a person’s vision to almost 20/20.

Cheryl’s wish was granted thanks to our donors!

Cheryl volunteered after Hurricane Katrina hit her town by helping gather clothing, food and personal items for those her were displaced by the storm. She also helped at her local food kitchen. She grew up in Connecticut and has not been back to visit in 20 years. She wishes to go once more to reunite with her siblings and place flowers on her parent’s graves. Due to a medical condition, she requires continuous oxygen. In order to fly, she will need to rent an oxygen unit with a backup battery pack. She cannot afford to rent this on her own.

Deborah loves to knit hats and scarves for the homeless in her community. In the past year, she made and delivered over 450 of them. She says that if she can help a person “stay a little warmer it makes her heart sing”. She has been nominated because she needs a new refrigerator. Her current one only has one shelf that isn’t broken. She lives on a fixed income and there just isn’t enough money left each month to buy one on her own. We need to raise $1,200 to make this simple wish come true for her. Please donate today!

JoAnn S., 73, and Pauline H., 79, Perkasie, PA

May 24, 2021/0 Comments/in Open Wishes /by twilightwish

JoAnn and Pauline are neighbors who both have several diseased elm trees on their properties that could fall at any moment, which would destroy their homes at the least, according to a tree specialist. Both women are widowed and live on fixed incomes. They have exhausted all other options to get the trees removed so they reached out to Twilight Wish for assistance. A tree service is donating the cost of labor and removal, but we need to raise $1,200 to cover the cost of the crane rental. We need your help to make this happen quickly. Please donate today!
