Tink’s Dream: Rides, Stars, and Special Memories in Orlando

Eighteen-year-old Tink knew exactly what she wanted for her Dream, a trip to Orlando and Walt Disney World. For her, it was the place to go, filled with magic, excitement, and memories waiting to be made. With support from Toby’s Dream Foundation, Tink and her family were able to experience just that.

This was Tink’s second time flying. Though she felt nervous at first, she handled it with courage and quickly settled into the excitement of what awaited her in Florida.

For Tink, some of the most special moments came while riding attractions in the parks and feeling the thrill of skipping the long lines. Another highlight was making her Wish Star at Give Kids the World Village, a symbol that will shine forever as part of her Dream experience.

One memory the entire family cherished was taking photos with Minnie and Mickey. Having those moments together, captured in pictures they will treasure, was a highlight for everyone.

When they weren’t in the parks, the family soaked up the fun and comfort of Give Kids the World Village. Tink loved the ice cream shop and the spa, and the younger family members were drawn to the carousel just outside their villa. Every time they stepped out, the little ones wanted to hop on for another ride, filling the trip with even more laughter and joy.

Reflecting on the experience, Tink’s family shared how much it meant to step away from the daily challenges and simply be together. The Dream provided a much-needed break, giving Tink a chance to relax, smile, and create joyful memories.

As Tink’s Grandma put it, the trip was “really a very special time that they could be together,” “We just wanted it all to make Tink happy. I was able to focus on giving Tink a break, and a good time.”

For Tink and her family, this Dream wasn’t just about visiting Disney, it was about happiness, connection, and memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you to Chartway Promise Foundation for helping us make this dream come true.
