Imagine that your child were just given the news
that the cancer is back. Then….
Imagine an organization that would grant your
child a second wish
to help bring a smile to his face,
making him happy and provides things to improve
his quality of life while boosting his spirits.

Happy Meal Toy Collections
for Kids Ages 0-22
We have made deliveries to CHOC for 7 years filling treasure boxes
almost monthly with the help of Michele Adair. Our deliveries usually
fill all the treasures chests in the clinics at CHOC, St. Joseph Emergency Room, Pavilion Lab and Radiology. We also delivered boxes
of larger toys, boxes full of crayons and markers for the oncology
clinic. Heidi’s holiday party guests donated gift cards for teenagers in
lieu of hostess gifts. Grant’s brother, Trent has been collecting
wrapped Happy Meal Toys for the treasure boxes at CHOC since
2003. He has also collected color books and crayons since 1996 for
CHOC on the anniversary of his Heart Transplant every December.
There are now collection boxes at McPherson Magnet School and
KD’s Donuts and Wagner Elementary in Placentia. Many wonderful
people have helped spread the word. The donations have increased due
to collections by local girl scout troops, businesses, friends and family.
A special thank you to Michelle Adair for helping get the word out
and helping with the delivery. We’d love to have your help too. We
need more teenage and infant items.

Seven years ago on November 23rd 2002 the Sullivan’s lost
their youngest son Grant when he was just 6 years old. Grant
lost his battle to neuroblastoma, 5 months after his relapse
which to say the least has been very difficult. Their oldest son’s
good friend, Bart was 17 years old when he lost his cancer
battle after 4 years of treatments on March 29, 2004. GRANTS
WISHES evolved from the passing of these two wonderful boys
and others who lost their lives to cancer with the help of family
& friends.

On October 4, 2008 at The Hilton in Costa Mesa, we had a good
turnout in spite of the stock market plunge! Our Symphony of Art
event held at the CSUF Art Museum on April 10, 2009 was a great
success with the Starbucks donated art on display. The Tropez Boutique fashion event on April 23, 2009 was full of style and fun. We
had great silent auctions and opportunity drawings. Donated items
contributed significantly to the success and fun of the events. Thank
you to all our guests, sponsors, supporters, volunteers, CSUF students
and STARBUCKS volunteers for their contribution to our successful
event. We couldn’t have done it without each and everyone of you!
