Up to 400 wishes are granted yearly for sick children around the state.
The organization just completed another one. Antoni was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. He always wanted to go to Alaska to fish.
Make-A-Wish New Jersey made it happen. The group says that Antoni “not only fished but also explored the unique culture and nature of the region.”
“His mom shared that it was a trip they will always remember,” stated a social media post from Make-A-Wish New Jersey.
