Magical Moments Foundation is a wish-granting organization for children with craniofacial disorders. We work to make a difference in these children’s lives, spread awareness of the lifelong harm caused by appearance-related stigma, and promote acceptance of facial diversity. Children with facial differences often endure the pain of teasing, bullying, and isolation— pain that can leave emotional scars that last a lifetime. Children that face the world with a difference also endure the challenge of a more silent, but just as damaging, form of stigma: that of unconscious bias. Similar programs have been established at other college charters across the United States, such as UNC, UGA, UMiami, Duke, and many more.
Magical Moments foundation creates magical experiences that restore hope and provide comfort, inspiration, and encouragement to children with facial differences that are the result of genetic disorders, congenital anomalies, cancer treatment, severe trauma and burns. Through the magical moments that we create, we not only make a difference in children’s lives, but we also promote awareness of the lifelong harm caused by appearance-related stigma and create more widespread acceptance of facial diversity within our communities. With your help fundraising, we can grant wishes that teach children with facial differences to believe in themselves while teaching the world to see and celebrate the beauty in every child! Furthermore, we aim to utilize the funding for volunteer opportunities by collaborating in conjunction with the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Camp Courage.
