Farrenton Smith of Donaldsonville, Louisiana, was recently granted a dream from the Sunshine Foundation for a family trip to Central Florida’s Theme Parks. Farrenton lives with severe level 3 autism.
“I want to thank the sponsors and Sunshine Foundation for blessing our family with this great opportunity, this has been a dream come true for Farrenton and my family. We had a wonderful time meeting new people and seeing the children enjoying themselves. This trip was magical!” said Farrenton’s grandmother, Donna.
Sunshine Foundation answers dreams to children with life-long chronic illnesses and conditions such as spina bifida, cerebral palsy, severe level 3 autism, Down syndrome, hydrocephalus, severe epilepsy, Sickle Cell Disease, blindness, deafness, trauma from abuse, and others.

To make these dreams a reality for children that may be turned away from other wish-granting organizations that require a life-threatening or critical diagnosis, Sunshine Foundation relies on the generosity of individuals, organizations, and corporations.
Farrenton’s “Dream Come True” was made possible through a generous donor. You can also make a dream come true by donating at www.sunshinefoundation.org.
