I recently lost my best friend of 30 years to pancreatic cancer. 

For nearly 4 years, Jill fought with incredible grace while we raced to create as many memories as possible before she became too sick to travel.

What I learned during that time changed everything: there are countless families out there facing the same impossible situation - wanting desperately to take one last trip together, but overwhelmed by the logistics, costs, and medical complexities that come with serious illness.

We launched TravelWish in Jill's honor. Our mission is simple: help families facing critical illness create forever memories through compassionate service providers and donated travel.

For too many families, "someday" becomes never. We're here to change that.

If you know a family who could benefit from our services, please share. If this mission speaks to your heart, please follow our page and help us spread the word. And if you're in the travel industry and want to partner with us, please reach out.

Every trip we help make possible honors Jill's spirit and the belief that no family should have to choose between treatment and memories.

Thank you for helping us turn grief into purpose.
