Thank you Channel 8 News for your support!
A Second Wish By Demetrius is a Tampa, FL-based community organization dedicated to granting second wishes to children aged 8 to 18 who are facing life-threatening illnesses. We also offer support services to their families, providing renewed hope and creating lasting memories during difficult times.
Featured Wish Child
Kaley
Kaley, age 16 was born with a Chromosome 6 deletion and was diagnosed with stage four Lymphoma. Kaley's favorite things are playing kitchen and playing with baby dolls. She is looking forward to a second wish to Disney World, Orlando, FL.
Client Testimonial
My daughter Julia was diagnosed with Niemann Pick Disease type C. She became interested in country music and the artist named Kip Moore. Julia was so excited leading up to the concert. It made her so happy to be able to meet Kip backstage before the concert. Now she tells everyone about her experience meeting Kip, it has been a highlight of her life. I would definitely recommend A Second Wish for Demetrius to anyone in a similar situation. The communication throughout the process was wonderful and they were so caring. They made my daughter's dream come true and I appreciate it beyond words.
