Make-Wish make dreams a reality for young girl

July 15, 2023 by SouthEtobicokeNews


Elyanna received a double lung transplant for a genetic condition in a life-saving surgery. Today, she’s an active, adventurous, and ambitious 10-year-old girl who is eager to take on the world!
She’s excited to head out on her week-long trip to Walt Disney World in Florida, courtesy of Make-A-Wish® Canada.

Elyanna, alongside 40 other wish families from across Canada will gather at the Sheraton Gateway Hotel in Toronto on July 17 for a pre-flight party to celebrate sending the families off on their dream vacation.

Blue Cross, which is generously providing free travel insurance for each family, will host the party. It’ll be an unforgettable opportunity for families to meet one another and celebrate with the children ahead of their trip the next day.

The lounge will include visits with exotic animals, photo opportunities with mascots & Storm Troopers, arts and crafts, and much more.

Blue Cross is honoured to have been part of Make-Wish Canada’s legacy for the last 30 years and has proudly provided over 30,000 travel wishes covering over 130,000 Canadian families.
