The Fundación Pequeño Deseo (FPD) makes the wishes of children with chronic or serious illnesses come true in order to support them emotionally and temporarily keep them away from the disease. The fulfillment of a desire generates positive emotions that have an enormous effect on their well-being and on the way to deal with the disease.
In the Fundación Pequeño Deseo they work every day so that illusion and joy become part of the treatment. They work individually with each child to invite him to dream and to express his greatest illusion, by the hand of child psychologists, trained and prepared for it.
In most cases, the desire reaches the FPD through the medical center or the child's family environment. The FPD will not work in any case without the agreement of both the medical team responsible for the child and their parents or guardians. The parents and the medical team become accomplices, collaborating with the FPD to invite the child to dream. In addition, as far as possible, they try to make the desire surprise until the moment of its realization, because the positive effect is greater.
