Zachary’s Magical 10th Birthday at Disney World

Zachary, who has Down syndrome, had an unforgettable 10th birthday celebration at Disney World, the most magical place on earth! The highlight of his trip was being chosen to participate in the Lion King show. While away from the park, Zachary and his family enjoyed all the wonderful amenities at the Sunshine Foundation Dream Village.

Thank you from Zachary’s Family

“Zachary had a wonderful magical trip. The dream was planned perfectly to be able to celebrate Zachary’s 10th Birthday. The cottage was amazing, with birthday balloons and cupcakes. His favorite part was getting chosen at the Lion King show at Disney World, a very special moment as he loves the Lion King movie. I saw the joy in my son’s face, which I hadn’t seen much this year. I’m just so blessed, grateful, and thankful for the Sunshine Foundation and sponsors, sponsoring my son’s dream trip.” – Zachary’s mom
