Wishes Map

Through partner organizations, friends tell us one specific wish. We record it, film it and send it to them. Every fulfilled wish is marked here. To protect privacy, we only show nicknames and the approximate province or city.

Sample: This page currently shows sample content so you can preview the site. Entries marked “Sample” are not real people or recordings, and will be replaced when real content is published.
