At some point in our way of life; some of us will have a rare chance to
embrace an opportunity of a life time. At that point and time we often
second guess ourselves as to the passion that is placed upon us. Our
destiny and way of life become altered and kneads at us to open our
hearts and eyes. This new feeling and vision grows day by day to
encourage us to make a difference. My way of life and living has been
forever shaped by events that have come about. My choices are clear and
now I am on a mission to make a difference. My mission came to me in
2004. I lost my Mother to Cancer that year, and four years earlier, I
lost my only Maternal Aunt. I was driven by emotions not for the ones I
lost but for the ones that were to come after the loved ones I lost.
Adult Wish Foundation (AWF) was initially founded to lend a
giving hand to lower income African Americans, our services are
available to everyone who meet our qualifications and guidelines. I
wanted to provide an avenue for a community of adults that have been
forgotten to receive a “reasonable” wish during an arduous time of their
life. African Americans have been for several years, disproportionately
engross with terminal illnesses from Cancer to AIDS/HIV which is
consistently on the rise. AIDS is now impacting our Communities and
Communities Nationwide. African American Women diagnoses are
persistently growing. Adult Wish Foundation (AWF) is without prejudice
and our doors are unquestionably open to all races without regard to
gender, ethnicity, or religious preference.
