The most magical sound in the world is children’s laughter It fills the air at Give Kids The World Village — a wish-fulfilling, storybook retreat for critically ill children and their families. The Village is an 84-acre, nonprofit resort near Central Florida’s world-famous theme parks and attractions. Children and their families are treated to weeklong, cost-free, dream vacations, complete with accommodations in the Village’s whimsical villas, donated attraction tickets, meals and much more. At the Village, these precious children learn that dreams really do come true. For one magical week, they and their families are immersed in joy, hope and non-stop fun – a welcome escape from the everyday challenges of coping with a critical illness. Since 1986, Give Kids The World Village has hosted more than 160,000 families from all 50 states and more than 75 countries. This extraordinary, life-changing experience is Give Kids The World’s gift, made possible only through the generosity of dedicated corporations and countless individuals.
