Qualifications toApply

At Wish Upon A Starfish, our mission is to create lasting memories and moments of respite for families facing the challenges of childhood cancer, disease, or special needs. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to experience the joy and healing power of a vacation, regardless of their circumstances.

We’re looking to help as many different types of families as we can, but our priority is to donate our properties to families who:

Have a child battling cancer, some other childhood illness or special needs
The child is medically stable enough to travel to the Panama City Beach area
Does not require extensive medical equipment (or whatever medical equipment is required can be transported)
Is referred by a medical professional or affiliated agency

If you feel your family can meet these qualifications, please contact us, and let’s talk about getting your vacation scheduled.
