Sometimes the difference between a hope and a cherished memory is a community that decides to help.
The Challenge

The Chance Received
Make-A-Wish Greater Bay Area helped arrange a family trip to London, including a chance to meet This Esme at the International Horse Show.
What Came True
The organization reports that Suriha's wish came true in December 2025. She and her family traveled to London and met the creator she admired.
