A Wish Come True, Inc. Charity Profile
For more than 26 years, “A Wish Come True, Inc.” has been granting wishes to children age 3 through 18 who suffer from life threatening illnesses, and live in Rhode Island and parts of southeastern Massachusetts. It has been quite a journey, and the lives of countless children and their families have been positively impacted as a result of this journey.The journey began with Rosemary Bowers, A Wish Come True’s Founder and former Executive Director. From 1978-1982, Rosemary and a group of friends held fundraisers to help people within their communities. She had received her degree in Child Development and Family Relations from the University of Rhode Island, and over the next several years, Rosemary was involved in early childhood education, and volunteering at local hospitals. It was here she would see firsthand the daily struggles of so many children dealing with severe illnesses.
