Overview
- The 25,000th wish on Sunday took 49-year-old Wendy from a Doetinchem hospice to Noordwijk aan Zee with her daughters.
- The charity says seven additional wishes were completed the same day, including visits to a caravan in Assel and a family birthday.
- Organizers plan to mark the milestone next weekend at Rotterdam’s Laurenskerk, where about 500 guests are expected.
- The foundation completes roughly 2,000 wishes each year with support from about 300 volunteers, sending a driver and a nurse on every trip.
- Requests dipped during early-January snowfall before rebounding sharply in the past week, which helped bring the milestone forward.
