Make-A-Wish Mid-South Internship
This is a Wish Star that I designed for the foundation's Season of Wishes campaign. There were several different children that were used for the stars, but this one is extra special to me because she is my little sister. Kayla wished to go to Disney in July of 2016.
Wish Reveal Press Releases
Wish reveals are an exciting time in a wish kid's life. This is where most children learn that their wish has come true in the cutest ways! Most times it is there first gleam of hope since they were diagnosed with whatever life threatening disease they have. Here are three press releases for wish kids Leonay, Makenzie, and Sofia.
Website Stories
During my internship, I was able to interview wish families and write a story on them that was published on the website. Here is the story of wish kid Reid! Jimi Tucker was another wish kid that I wrote about and here is his story!
My absolute favorite was in celebration of National Sibling Day. I was able to write about what siblings of sick children go through. To read the story of my sister and I, click here!
