WHAT DO WE DO?

MYTH BUSTER!
MAGICAL DAYS OUT
& TRAVEL GRANTS
OUTREACH &
CHARITY PARTNERS
We aim to provide tickets and travel grants to seriously ill, disabled and disadvantaged children across the world, to
give them the chance to enjoy a day out at a Merlin
Entertainments attraction.
For children unable able to visit our attractions we visit them in
hospitals and at other charitable organizations.
SOME OF
OUR LOCAL
PARTNERS
Sacrificial service is at the core of Make-A-Wish.
With the help of thousands of volunteers, this
non-profit is able to “grant the wish” of children
diagnosed with a life threatening medical
condition. At their core, Make-A-Wish believes
that bringing a wish to life can be a “game
changer” and has the potential to enrich the
human experience, impacting the lives of all
those involved.
The lives of youth, who are often abandoned and
abused by their families, are positively
transformed through CASAS, Court Appointed
Special Advocates, of Voices For Children. These
CASA volunteers are the mouthpiece for foster
children and advocate that every needy child
deserves a safe and enduring home. In order to
enhance the quality of life for these children,
Voices For Children actively increases
awareness about the foster care system.
In the middle of a 79 acre plot of land, lies a resort,
Give Kids The World Village. Here, the non-profit is
able to gift children with life threatening illnesses
and their families’ accommodations in furnished
villas, transportation, tickets to theme parks, meals,
daily entertainment and much more. Give Kids The
World acts as a helping hand in making sure that the
deserving families who come and visit have
everything they need to make a memorable vacation
that they will always remember.
Rady’s mission is “To restore, sustain and enhance the
health and developmental potential of children through
excellence in care, education, research and advocacy.”
The hospital fiercely pursues this mission via partnering
up with world renowned institutions, such as UC San
Diego and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, to
collaborate and conduct clinical research. In the city of
San Diego, Rady’s happens to be the only hospital
dedicated solely to pediatric healthcare and the regions
only pediatric trauma center. In 2015 alone, Rady’s
provided care to 214,216 children in Southern California
LLCR & RADY CHILDREN’S CHADWICK CENTER
Our outreach initiative delivers tailor-made installations to local organizations
that work with children who otherwise would be unable to experience the
Merlin Magic.
