Our goal is to be able to grant as many Disney wishes as we can for individuals with disabilities throughout the Centre region and throughout Pennsylvania.

Eligibility requirements:
(Please note that being eligible does not guarantee that a wish can or will be granted.)

* The nominee must live in Pennsylvania.
* The nominee must have a disability (intellectual, physical, and/or developmental) that significantly impacts their daily life. This will need to be verified by a doctor in the application process.

Nomination process:
* Each wish recipient must be nominated by someone who works with that individual in a professional capacity (teacher, paraprofessional, aide, therapist, coach, medical professional, etc.) Parents, guardians, or family members cannot nominate their own children/family members, even if they function in any of these roles for their child/family member.
* The nominator should provide as much detail and information as possible to give us a clear picture of who the nominee is. Nominators may be contacted in cases when more information is needed.
* Nominations can be submitted by clicking the “nominate” button below and following the prompts. 

Please contact info@pixiedustwishes.org with any questions about the nomination process.




 

How Does Someone Become Eligible for a Disney Wish?

After we receive a nomination, it will be reviewed by our Board of Directors. If the nomination meets our guidelines, we will contact the family to fill to complete an application and provide them with the next steps in order to be considered by the Board of Directors. After all of these steps are completed, the nominee will remain eligible for a wish for one year. If a wish is not granted within that time, the nomination process will need to begin again.
